North Lincolnshire Museum

Welcome to North Lincolnshire Museum Service

A great day out for all the family. Discover the stories of North Lincolnshire through many interactive exhibits - become a nature detective in 'Go Wild', step back in time in the Victorian ironstone cottage and relive the 'People's War'. Climb the stairs to delight in the treasures of our archaeology gallery and the award winning temporary exhibitions.

The museum displays draw on all of these collections, reflecting not only the great changes in the region but also the everyday lives of ordinary people. There is also an exciting courtyard garden to explore and a changing programme of temporary exhibitions.

We will be introducing more free activities, events and tours to our 2012 programme.
