Brilliant museum. A lot of local history and painting done by Welsh artists. My favourite part was the section with mammoth teeth

a lovely little museum tucked away in tenby. didn’t realise it was paid entry but it wasn’t a bad price to support the place. went last month for my friend’s birthday to see the spaf collective exhibition. a gorgeous collection of quilts and other work mostly focused on palestine including the palestine/wales solidarity quilt. so happy the museum took a stance and hosted work like this. a very important exhibition that felt like it belonged there. the rest of the museum also included a nice amount of artefacts and interesting history related to tenby.

Lovely little museum perched up on the cliff top, above the band stand. A small entrance fee which is actually a 12 month pass. This gallery punches way above its weight with an art collection which includes Gwen and Augustus John, Graham Sutherland and Eric Gill. Very pleasant and knowledgeable staff, be sure to visit

This is a fabulous museum and art gallery. It has a lot of artefacts and information about the history of Tenby, art by local eminent artist Augustus John as well as many others. What made it special for us was an exhibition of Martin Parrs photos of Tenby, and a room full of portrait photos of local people. Absolutely brilliant in conception and execution. Hats off to the museum staff. Lovely and friendly.
