Venue

Abergavenny Museum and Castle is an ideal venue for an educational visit. We welcome schools who wish to bring pupils for a general visit to look at the castle and/or the museum displays. Entry is free. We do ask that you let us know when you are intending to visit, so we can let you know of any events that may affect your visit. 

We are mindful of the pressures on the school budget and for this reason we have put together 'Castle Discoverers' a self led workshop for schools which focuses on the history of the Castle through outdoor learning. 

SPLASH! gives children the opportunity to control a small dinghy in a sheltered environment. In pairs, they learn the basics of sailing while engaged in games, exercises, races, etc. This is great fun and creates a sense of achievement that helps to develop children's self-confidence and encourages self-esteem and co-operation.  

Pembrokeshire's County Museum is located in a traditional Victorian country house near Haverfordwest, surrounded by 60 acres of park and woodland and is completed by an award-winning eco-centre.

Period rooms, railway displays, farming exhibition, costume, stable/rural crafts, art exhibitions, World War II homefront exhibition. Picnic and play areas, shop and tearoom.

Special events throughout the season, guided tours available. A great day out for all ages - whatever the weather.
