Amersham Museum is an award-winning, accredited, independent museum, sharing the stories of local people and places. The museum is housed in part of a Grade II listed medieval hall house in the heart of Amersham, a historic market town. The museum has a beautiful physic garden, next to the River Misbourne.
The museum runs a wide range of activities for people of all ages, including reminiscence groups, singing, art and literature workshops and an accredited art club for children. In 2020 the museum received a Sandford Award for heritage education. Our mobile museum delivers outreach visits across the local area.
The museum attracts 10,000 visitors a year and is brilliantly supported by three members of staff, a team of 125 volunteers and a Friends group with 250 members.
