We are now closed for the winter, re-opening on 11 March 2025.
We recently welcomed a group of children from Trinity School in Frome, who had great fun participating in hands-on activities and handlling objects from the museum’s collections, learning about Frome and its history.

Calling all researchers!
Following several years of development by a team of expert volunteers, the museum’s new online collections catalogue, with tens of thosands of records covering the history of Frome, is now available to all public researchers.

Together with this year’s refreshed branding and new approach to exhibitions and events, it strengthens the museum’s reputation as one of the most advanced small museums in the south west.
