Leicestershire is a diverse county that is both rich in culture and in history.
This is reflected by museums in the county, which house many objects of local, national and international importance. In our museums you can find out about Romans, machines and motors, dinosaurs, science and the natural world.

All of this is made possible by exhibitions, tours, classes, theatrical productions, activity days, participation and interactivity.

There are over 50 museums in Leicestershire, the biggest are Bosworth Battlefield, Charnwood Museum, Donington le Heath Manor House Museum, Harborough Museum, Melton Carnegie museum and Snibston. See the official websites here: http://www.leics.gov.uk/museums

There are also lots and lots of Community Museums, see http://www.leics.gov.uk/community_museums for more information.
