Musée Mécanique

Museum in San Francisco

Hours
Daily, 10:00 AM - 8:00 PM, per independent SF visitor listings -- the museum's own domain (museemecanique.org, and its apparent successor museemecaniquesf.com) couldn't be reached directly this pass…
Where
Pier 45, San Francisco, CA 94133
Price
Free (pay-per-play machines)

Free-to-enter antique arcade with one of the world's largest privately-owned collections of coin-operated mechanical musical instruments, fortune tellers, and old arcade games.

Good to know

  • Free admission; individual machines are pay-per-play with coins, per the venue's own longstanding convention.
  • Heads-up for a future check: the sourceUrl on file (museemecanique.org) now resolves to an unrelated site with a mismatched security certificate, and the likely-successor domain (museemecaniquesf.com) refused connections outright as of 8/30/2026 -- the museum itself still appears very active on Yelp/Facebook, so this looks like a lapsed domain rather than a closure, but it's worth someone re-checking with a working sourceUrl next pass.
