This specialty museum and factory tour was founded in 1990 and originally located at Underground Atlanta as an attraction dedicated to the heritage of The Coca Cola Company. In March of 2007, the original museum closed its doors, and the new one opened its doors on May 24 of that same year at Pemberton Place. The property is named in honor of John S. Pemberton, the inventor of Coca-Cola. Visitors to this exciting attraction can explore the history of the world’s best-known beverage brand and get an inside look at the bottling process, including the production of a commemorative glass bottle for every guest. There are more than 1,200 artifacts from around the world on view in the world’s largest collection of Coke memorabilia, and visitors can enjoy “the tasting experience,” which is an opportunity to sample more than 100 flavors from around the globe!
A multisensory 4-D movie (3-D glasses with moving seats) that takes viewers around the world is one of the exciting interactive exhibits, and you can get closer than ever before to the vault containing the secret recipe of the world’s most famous soft drink! The whole family will enjoy learning all about this part of history and Americana – and you can even have your photos taken with the seven-foot-tall Coca-Cola Polar Bear! The Pop Culture Gallery showcases how fans of Coke have made the brand an icon of popular culture, and it includes works by such artists as Steve Penley, Haddon Sundblom, and Howard Finster.
