Keswick Museum — Attraction in Keswick

Perfect for kids and adults. Brilliant insight into local history.

There’s a lot of love evident in this community museum.

I was surprised at how entertaining it turned out to be. The blurbs don’t do it justice.

A child is free with a paying adult.

They get a pocket history about local geology and fondle a selection of rocks before having a 3D visual of the surrounding area.

The rock xylophone must be experienced in person. Kudos if you can belt out a tune.

Plus there are type writers, ink and feather quills, 3 bears story telling, arts and crafts, etc.

Don’t wait for a rainy day to...

Bright, well presented, modern museum. Regardless of whether you are interested in boats or not, there is something here for everyone. Numerous activities for the children can be adapted to suit most ages. The 'older' children also seem to enjoy them. More photographic opportunities than you can 'shake a stick at'! The cafe is lovely and offers a good range of food and drink. Staff throughout are welcoming and very willing to provide additional information and guidance. The heritage trip on one of the steam boats is a MUST! Enjoy your day, you will probably want to...

A brilliant little museum packed with character and surprises! Keswick Museum offers a fascinating look into local history, with everything from Victorian curiosities to hands-on exhibits.

The musical stones were a real highlight – who knew rocks could make music? 🎶🪨 The whole place is thoughtfully curated, with a friendly atmosphere and plenty to explore despite its modest size.

Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area and love places that are a bit quirky, educational, and full of charm.
