Housed in Taunton’s historic castle 🏰, the Museum of Somerset tells the county's fascinating story from prehistoric times ⏳ to the present day. Within the 12th century castle walls you’ll find nine amazing themed galleries, each with its own distinctive character. Plus great family visitor facilities, all situated within the town centre.
🔎 Our ‘must see’ exhibits include a 200 million year old Plesiosaur fossil (a type of marine reptile); the impressive Low Ham Roman mosaic; a stunning Bronze Age Gold Torc and the Frome Hoard of more than 50,000 Roman coins. The museum also houses The Somerset Military Museum.
Once you've enjoyed the Sci-Fi themed activities, trail and Doctor Who Art exhibition why not stop for refreshments at the Museum café. ☕🍰 The Courtyard Café showcases some of Somerset’s great-tasting produce. Take your pick from morning coffees and pastries, freshly-made light lunches, afternoon teas and cake. There is both indoor and outdoor seating.
