Totnes Elizabethan House Museum

Totnes Museum is now open for 2019. This year we have three new exhibitions. We look forward to welcoming you to the Museum. The Totnes Elizabethan House Museum is a great way to spend a day out in Totnes, whatever the weather outside! What will you want to see? Our resident ghost? Our Elizabethan Herb garden? Our medieval kitchen? Our collection of medicines from the middle ages? Our spiral staircase made from a ship's mast? Or is it Totnes' illustrious son, Charles Babbage, who invented the first mechanical computer, whatever your interest in history is the Totnes Museum is a fascinating place to spend of few hours of your time.

A preserved Elizabethan house, this houses Totnes Museum. Popular with visitors because the museum holds a donation policy (other museums...take note.) Three floors covering the history of Totnes from pre-Roman times to the present day. Includes a herb garden at the back and a gallery especially dedicated to Charles Babbage, the man who laid the foundation for what was to become computer technology (just think: thanks to him we now have people who's whole lives are controlled by a mobile telephone when you see them walking and texting at the same time trying not to bump into people. Thanks Charlie! ????)
