The Heritage Museum of The Bahamas opened in July 2014, and is the foundation of Graycliff's new Heritage Village. Located in the historically preserved Mountbatten House on West Hill Street, the museum offers visitors an in depth look at the history and heritage of The Bahamas, ranging from the pre-historic times to today. The majority of the collection exhibited at the museum is owned by Hamilton White, a well-known British antiques collector. Mr. White's expansive collection greatly complements all that lies on historical West Hill Street, with relics and treasures spanning the centuries to include natural history and fossils, the days of Columbus, the piracy era, slavery and plantation life, the Maritimes of the 18th century, life in the out islands during the early 1900's, the days of the Duke of Windsor, the Royal Air Force, Bahamas Speed Weeks, and so much more.... The oldest of artefacts being a slice of a meteorite which is approximately 4.5 billion years old.

very cool artifacts, nice tour. The audio tour was a bust but the woman working did the tour herself which was great. A lot of history of the Bahamas I didn't know previously.

My wife and I visited this small museum on our honeymoon last week. We planned a self guided walking tour of downtown that started at Fort Fincastle. From the Fort we walked down the Queen's Staircase which leads you directly down the street to this quaint little museum. The individuals who guided us through the artifacts and information on display possessed a great deal of passion for their Bahamian history and culture. This made the visit much more enjoyable and allowed us the opportunity to fully understand the exhibits as we were exploring them. I would say this is a must visit location if you are interested in the history of The Bahamas dating to the Lucayan peoples, and are looking for an option away from the more traditional tourist options.
