A perfect combination of history and entertainment, this popular tourist destination educates all that attend on the story behind Dr Pepper while offering unique ways to enjoy the nation’s oldest major soft drink.

The Original Home of Dr Pepper

Before being transformed in 1989 by devoted Dr Pepper enthusiasts, this spot was originally the Artesian Manufacturing and Bottling Company, the first building with the sole purpose of manufacturing Dr Pepper. The vision was to create a museum dedicated to sharing the history of Dr Pepper in innovative, interactive and inspiring ways. Since opening to the public in 1991, the Dr Pepper Museum has had over 2.5 million visitors and counting!
