Charlbury Museum is currently closed because of the Covid-19 pandemic. It will reopen when circumstances permit. It is an independent museum, run entirely by volunteers. Its five rooms are full of exhibits revealing the history of this ancient market town. There is much to interest both adults and children.
A magnificent Oxfordshire farm wagon is the latest new exhibit, recently meticulously restored. The museum also houses a blacksmith's forge, a glove-making display, penny-farthing bicycle, war-time memorabilia, Victorian costumes, old shop and inn signs, and farm tools. There is a large archive of photographs of Charlbury and its people. You will be warmly welcomed by our volunteer stewards.
Opening Times. Currently closed because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Normally the Museum opens from Easter to the end of September, on Saturdays from 10.30am to 12.30pm, and on Sundays and Bank Holiday Mondays from 2.30pm - 4.30pm, and in August on Saturday afternoons from 2.30pm - 4.30pm.
