Small yet highly interesting, comfortable and well explained museum. From the history behind Reading, to art and natural history. Super covid friendly and really respectful of social distancing measures.
It may be small but it is definitely worth a visit. Wonderful. And the staff? What can I say the man welcoming us in today was hilarious. We had a great time. Really recommend oh and the picture frame upstairs, lol, we thought we were in Alice through the looking glass for a second. So much fun.
Brilliant museum and telling the history of Reading.And a lovely cafe in the basement of the building quite cheap and home made sausage roll very tasty.
Fun day out! Staff are friendly and there was so much to look at. Very interesting!
A nice museum based in the Reading town hall. Entry is free. There are three floors of exhibits some of which are about the nearby abbey ruins. The displays include information on the Saxon origins of Reading and exhibits from the Victorian age. On the second floor is a copy of the Bayeux tapestry.
Lovely and extensive museum chronicling the early history of Reading, as well as some good focus on some more recent and modern developments of the city. They also have a replica of the Bayeux Tapestry which is a real highlight of an important artifact in the country's history.
Lovely little local museum perhaps most well known for its full-size reproduction of the Bayeux Tapestry which tells the story of the Battle of Hastings, 1066 and all that. Last time I visited they also had a taxidermied badger. So something for everyone.
Nice time to spend a few hours with the family
I like it a lot is really organized and have the tapestry that is quite famous.
Interesting local history museum. Includes a review of the history of the Reading Abbey, as well as a locally produced copy of the Bayeux Tapestry. Additionally there is a section covering the Roman ruins south of Reading. Notably includes The Eagle statue, upon which the Eagle of the Ninth book/movie is based.
