Poole Museum
With its stunning new entrance and atrium, the museum's new public facilities include a terrace and visitor lounge with magnificent views over Poole Harbour and Old Town. The original fabric of the 18th century harbour warehouse which houses the main displays has been carefully revealed to provide the perfect setting for the story of Poole and its people to be told.
Contemporary display methods have been used to provide increased access to the museum's rich collections and to engage, inform, educate and inspire everyone who comes to explore Poole's rich heritage.
