Small museum but packed full of interesting artifacts from local digs. Would recommend swinging by if you're in Market Harborough. It also has lots of child friendly activities.

Small but very interesting. Suits older folks rather than kids. Market Harborough is a lovely town and well served by local shops. No charge for the museum and easy access to a cafe and an ice cream parlour.

Wonderful little museum full of local history and life.....Good for children but only small setting so does not take long to go around. Worth a visit

Excellent small museum. Interesting artefacts, well displayed, easy to digest information.

Great local hub for all local archives. Could spend hours here

Could do with a few more signs to tell you where it is! Once i found it though, it was very interesting.

Excellent exhibitions and lots to look at and plenty for the children to interact with.

Great place to visit. So much work has gone into the displays.

Lovely little museum with lots of local displays and also an amazing collection of Iron Age coins.

Interesting museum, well set out, showing local history and finds, with a temporary exhibition space and a good coffee shop downstairs. Plus dressing up opportunities!

Very interesting and informative meusem, especially if you are interested in local history.

It is very contempory in it's layout and plays host to a wide variety of artefacts and pieces of interesting information. Ideal to bring children; has a dressing up box with top notch period outfits. The gift shop is very quaint and has plenty of sweets!

Very interesting place to visit. Kids liked it.

Small but very interesting museum. There's an excellent display of Iron Age finds from the area.

Fascinating museum on local history of Market Harborough and the surrounding area. Very good set of displays on the town industrial history. Especially interesting was the extensive display of the Iron Age coin collection from Gallatin. This was a huge discovery, and has coins dating from ~ 50 BC. It's amazing when you see the intricacies of the coin designs. There had to be very sophisticated metal working skills to produce these coins.

Not just for a rainy day! There's tons to do and learn here. Combined with the library, coffee shop and all the other things, there's a while half day if fun to be had here. The ladies on reception were extremely helpful and welcoming. The building itself is absolutely spectacular. Go and have a look for yourself!

Great museum to visit and free too! :) + Gift Shop

Really enjoyed looking around the museum. There are lots of different artifacts on view, spanning Roman to 20th century, and different interactive areas, my children enjoyed the dressing up area. There is also a small gift shop with a range of items for sale.
