Museums & Exhibitions

Our Museum displays a number of objects unearthed at Creswell Crags. This nationally important collection includes primitive hand tools as well as the remains of several surprising species which you might not have known were regular visitors to Britain.

Artefacts have been sourced and brought together from major British collections to illustrate this most influential period of human history. Let this nationally important exhibition guide you through the story of life in the Ice Age.

We hold on average 6-8 special exhibitions a year, with a wide variety of themes including archaeology, history, art, nature and wildlife. We work with many different groups and individuals on these exhibitions, and further details can be found below. Best of all, all our temporary exhibitions are FREE!
