5. Lacis Museum of Lace & Textiles

Established by the merger between the Lacis retail store and an amazing private collection, this museum will appeal not just to needlework and sewing aficionados but to history buffs as well. Thousands of individual textiles and laces are exhibited, including pre-Columbian items and 17th century European pieces, providing a great overview of the textile arts and industry. Other highlights include a huge collection of sewing machines, assorted lace and textile making tools, and a library of over 10,000 related books, patterns, and ephemera. Don't miss the gift shop!   (© 10Best)
