Oxford Bus Museum

Oxford Bus Museum

Add Oxford Bus Museum to your Itinerary

As well as over 40 buses on display, there are other exhibits, from fire engines to bicycles, adding a period feel. Visitors can enter several of the vehicles and on the first Sunday of the month (March to October) there is a free vintage bus ride.

The Oxford Bus Museum has its origins in the Oxford Bus Preservation Syndicate, established in 1967 by a group of enthusiasts who had the foresight to realise that vehicles of potential significance to future generations should be saved before they were lost for all time. Beginning with just one vehicle – which can still be seen and ridden on – the collection has grown steadily, with over 40 buses now on display.

Since the end of 2004 the Museum has also been home to another exhibition – the Morris Motors Museum, telling the story of how cars and commercial vehicles were produced at Cowley in Oxford. There are exhibitions of photographs, drawings and all kinds of memorabilia, together with an impressive display of vintage Morris vehicles, representing the earliest to the last. Entry is included in the Oxford Bus Museum admission price – two museums for the price of one!

The Museum is open on on Sundays, Wednesdays and Bank Holidays throughout the year. From Easter to the end of October, it is also open on Saturdays. Open from 10.30am to 4.30pm, last admission 3.30pm.
