Explore the history of Amersham through displays and activities. The Museum reopens with the new exhibition on the 1st of March 2025.
Based largely in a medieval hall house, Amersham Museum explores life in the town’s past through intriguing objects and local stories. Sit at the Tudor dinner table, relax in the 1930s living room, or listen to stories in Ron Haddock’s 1960s record shop. Investigate our timeline display from fossils to doll houses, and medieval tiles to historical maps. Visit our changing exhibition programme, join a guided walk (walk leaflets are available to buy at the Museum’s shop or you can download your PDF copy at the link below), take part in an activity session, or wander through our medicinal herb garden.
Amersham Museum is open from Wednesday to Sunday, and on Bank Holiday Mondays, from 12 noon until 4:30pm.
