Exhibitions

Market Hall Museum is located in the Market Hall, a 17th-century landmark in the heart of Warwick. Refurbished in 2017 with the help of a generous grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund, the museum tells the story of Warwickshire, and how the shifting natural, built and human landscapes have shaped the county to the present day. Our popular exhibits include:

Full size Museum Bear
Observation beehive, cared for by local beekeepers (on occasion the beehive is taken off display for bee-care)
The Sheldon Tapestry Map of Warwickshire
The historic Wilmcote Plesiosaur skeleton
Two Warwickshire Roman silver coin hoards
Cross Hands Quarry Dinosaur
Historic costume display
Fire of Warwick interactive
Oisin, our tweeting Giant Irish Deer skeleton

NEW temporary exhibition 'Blind Sport at 50' opens Friday 5th September 2025 until Saturday 14th March 2026. Find out more.
