Welcome to Weston Museum
Weston Museum is now open. We have also created a programme of entertainment and educational content online, please enjoy via our website, YouTube channel and our Facebook page.
Discover the history of Weston-super-Mare at Weston Museum. Housed in a beautiful and distinctive historic building. We tell the story of the town and the surrounding area from prehistoric times to the present day.
Once you know your history you understand more of who you are, you learn from the past and find ways to predict the future and even help create a better one.
Weston Museum’s free admission means that the museum is truly for everyone and is quickly becoming a popular destination among tourists as one of Weston’s top attractions.
