Why Go
Cleveland won the museum, opened in 1995, partly because DJ Alan Freed popularized the phrase 'rock and roll' here in the 1950s. Seven floors hold instruments, stage costumes, handwritten lyrics and films of the inductees.
Tips
- Start at the top and work down; don't miss the inductee film and the jam room where you can play instruments.
