I froze over the Willow Creek map as the Lost Legacies task blinked red. You needed the Municipal Muses Museum and the lot wasn’t obvious. My stomach tightened because the Royal Envoy’s chess match wasn’t going to wait.
Neighborhood storefronts sit cheek-by-jowl on a quiet street — Municipal Muses Museum location in The Sims 4
I’ve chased down dozens of Sims lots; this one is simple once you know where to look. The Municipal Muses Museum is planted in Willow Creek, the base-game world everyone has. It lives on the community-lot row in the Crawdad Quarter neighborhood, near the southwest corner of the map.
The museum is a bookmark in a crowded novel. You’ll find it at the far left end of that community block, closest to the bottom-left corner of the Willow Creek map — squashed between the Willow Creek Archive library, Movers & Shakers gym, and The Blue Velvet nightclub. Directly north sits Magnolia Blossom Park.
Where is the Municipal Muses Museum in The Sims 4?
The short answer: Willow Creek → Crawdad Quarter → the leftmost community lot on the row near the southwest map corner. If you open the world map and zoom to Crawdad Quarter you should see the cluster; the museum sits at the bottom-left of that strip.
A habit of checking your phone comes in handy — How to travel to the Municipal Muses Museum and what to do if it’s missing
You can get your Sim there two ways. Open the world map, pick Willow Creek, then select the Municipal Muses Museum lot; that’s usually the quickest path. Or tap your Sim’s phone, choose Travel, pick Willow Creek, and select the museum from the list.
If the lot has been replaced in your save, the objective sometimes still counts if you stand on the original parcel — other times it won’t. If the game refuses to register progress, restoring the original lot from the Gallery or loading a different save is the fastest fix. Restoring the lot is a lighthouse in the fog.
How do I travel to the Municipal Muses Museum?
Use the map for speed or the phone for convenience — both route your Sim to the same lot. I prefer the map because it drops you straight onto the lot without extra clicks, but the phone method works when you’re mid-interaction.
What if the Municipal Muses Museum is missing from my world?
Community lots are editable. Players often replace the museum with another build, which breaks some event triggers — particularly during the Lost Legacies week-three tasks that involve the Royal Envoy from Ondarion. If the museum isn’t where it should be, open the Gallery (via the EA App or the in-game Gallery), search for the original Municipal Muses Museum, and replace the lot. Alternately, load a save where Willow Creek or Oasis Springs hasn’t been altered; many event quests prefer untouched maps.
Small details matter: win the chess match against the Royal Envoy before you visit if the task demands it, and keep one clean save just for events that reference base-game community lots. I’ve done this more than once, and it saves time when an objective refuses to tick.
EA/Maxis built The Sims 4 with the Gallery as a safety net — use it, and you’ll cut through confusion faster than a debug menu. Will you swap your Willow Creek save to chase the Royal Envoy or let the Lost Legacies week slide by?
