Tewkesbury Museum
Tewkesbury Museum is a community museum protecting and displaying the heritage of the Town.
The collections in Tewkesbury Museum reflect human activity in the region over the last 5000 years. Roman finds include a skeleton, metalwork, pottery and coins. There is a fine collection of Medieval material particularly from the Holm Castle excavations. These consist of 12th-13th century tiles, pottery, coins, metalwork, and stone masonry.
The Victorian to Twentieth century collections cover every aspect of civic, social and industrial life in the locality. There is a particularly fine set of large-scale fairground models celebrating Tewkesbury's role as the home of a fairground equipment manufacturer.
