Great little museum, full of history to do with the local area, Dunwich, and more. Loads of information with full details and facts. On display were loads of artifacts, everything from Roman coins, to medieval spoons, buttons, and saxon bits. . Free to enter but it is such a gem of a place. A good donation was given. Brilliant place very well put together.

It is a small museum but it is full of interesting things. The little model of the city how it was and is now clearly shows the devastation. The chap was extremely pleasant, informative and passionate with always makes for a pleasant experience.

Dunwich Museum is in the centre of Dunwich. It's also the heart of Dunwich, reminding us of it's unique history with fascinating displays. It held a pilgrimage walk from Westleton to Dunwich. There are educational and fun activity days. There is an annual open art exhibition run by the staff, displayed in the Reading Room.

I came here 25 years ago and remembered the model of the town showing how many buildings were lost to erosion by the sea. The museum is small and well laid out, and there is lots of interesting information to read. Upstairs, there were some interactive displays that children would enjoy. The recruiting booth for new smugglers was great fun. There is no charge to walk around. A suggested donation of £2 per person is requested.

A delightful museum with an enormous amount of information packed into a small space.. A timeline around the walls of the ground floor showed Dunwich's rise from a coastal settlement to its peak as a prosperous trading port and fall through the centuries in the losing battle against the sea to its present day status as a picturesque tourist attraction. The museum staff are enthusiastic and committed to their role. I was lucky to chat with the chairman of the museum trustees (I think) who was a fount of knowledge about Dunwich and its history. On the first floor there was a chance to watch a short film about the once town/city, now village and listen to an old man (not real) tell tales of the busy smuggling trade of times gone by. For younger visitors (and old if they wanted) there were mediaeval hats to try on and guess who would wear them whilst in the reading room behind the museum there was the chance to make bath bombs, fragrant herb bags and try one's hand at dyeing using fresh flowers and herbs. All in all a great experience
