We Need Your Help
We are charity – of 85 years standing – and receive no statutory funding. Our income is generated through admission costs at our museums plus a subscribing membership of approximately 1,400 people and organisations. In light of the decision to temporarily close our museums, if you can support us and make a much-needed donation we would be extremely grateful.
Visiting Us
No. 1 Royal Crescent is a museum which has been decorated and furnished just as it might have been during the period 1776-1796. The rooms feature historic furniture, pictures and objects that reveal what life was like for Bath’s fashionable residents – both upstairs and downstairs. The museum is a charity.
