Fantastic Collection of prehistoric artifacts and loads of information, really helpful friendly staff aswell, will definitely be visiting again, highly recommended, will be visiting again soon Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

Plenty to see in many rooms over the eras. Lots of Bronze Age, Middle Age and more archeological finds on show with good explanations and references. My young son was amused also.

Much more better Museum than the one in situ at Avebury, and no comparison with the tourist trap that Stonehenge nowadays is. Thank you very much to the lady on duty today at 11.30. Ah! 50% off for English Heritage membersVisited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo

This is a bit of a tardis of a museum with covid measures that are very good. The exhibition of items from pre-history to more modern day items, there are artifacts from Stonehenge including gold, tools weapons and everyday items. Well worth a visit if nearby.Entry fees with concessions and children free

This little gem is a must. There is a wide range of history and objects. Great for kids;  short enough to keep their attention or as adults, there is a lot of exhibits and information. This was my second visit. Certainly a rainy day backup plan or a great place to immerse yourself in the area and start with a good understanding. Give yourself over an hour or maybe two to really go through the exhibits. Easy to get to and then a lovely pub lunch at one of the popular watering holes.

Excellent historic museum, so much to see and read about. Do allow enough time to aprieciate it all. Covers prehistoric periods, through Roman times and more recent centuries. Well worth the entrance fee.

Can't really comment on the contents of the museum because after taking full price for the entrance ticket, the cashier told us they were closing in 25 minutes !!Visited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
