They are the same, but "did you not" makes the question stronger. You would say it this way if you were surprised that the other person didn't visit the museum yesterday, because you definitely remember them telling you that is where they were going. "Didn't" is more casual (I thought you told me that, but maybe I'm not remembering correctly).

They are both correct.
#2 is more bookish, and sounds a bit posh.
