We've had more visitors this year than ever. And, don't forget our book launch event 23rd Oct. Visit our website for more details. https://t.co/MnyLZ8BO5T

The support we've had from volunteers, visitors and donations has been wonderful and makes us feel that all the hard work we put in last year and this year to have the Museum open has been worthwhile.
We navigated the 'advice', recorded no incidents, and received lovely feedback.

Book Launch!
An exciting moment for the Museum as we've published a pictorial story of reminiscences and history of Saxmundham. The book is currently available for pre-launch orders. https://t.co/MnyLZ8BO5T

[Saxmundham Museum @SaxMuseum]

We are about to publish a new book, a pictorial story regarding the history of Saxmundham. Featuring reminiscences and tales, a little information about the grand houses and above all, an insight into the past Saxmundham.
The book, “Our story of Saxmundham” will be published soon

I guess we could have said that while we can't offer free chickens, we can offer free entry but please leave a donation if you enjoy your visit.

Everyone has been very supportive and we have had some great feedback.

Thank you!

[Saxmundham Museum @SaxMuseum]

Open tomorrow, first Tuesday opening in too long a time.
BTW 7 High St was rebuilt by the Co-Op in 1933. On its opening day each customer received a free chicken!
Sorry, we can't offer free chickens but come along and see our displays! Face coverings for the time being please.

The Trustees have reluctantly decided to postpone the scheduled Annual General Meeting for Saxmundham Museum.

Meanwhile, in order to ensure good governance of Saxmundham Museum, our latest set of annual accounts have been filed with the Charity Commission in the usual manner.

[Saxmundham Museum @SaxMuseum]

A huge ‘Thank You’ to everyone who visited the Museum this year! Our volunteers worked incredibly hard to open in a Covid secure way. We've shredded our final batch of visitor information forms. Looking forward to 2021! Keep safe!

[Saxmundham Museum @SaxMuseum]

We have a major maintenance issue at the Museum and we couldn't open today (25th) and or tomorrow (26th).
With sadness this brings our season to an early close.
Sorry to disappoint the potential visitors who had pre-booked to come to see us.
