Museums and Galleries

Cumbria's fascinating history is rich in interest for all ages and these web pages provide an insight into everything from border battles to seafaring expeditions and famous literary works from William Wordsworth to Beatrix Potter.
The page for each venue tells a different, but equally exciting story about the beautiful county of Cumbria and its fascinating past, and gives a brief summary of the range of displays and other attractions offered by the museum or gallery, opening times and admission details.
