A Victorian Christmas
On Saturday 29th November the Museum will be open free of charge from 2:00pm to 4:30pm. This free event has been made possible by a grant from Radstock Town Council.
The afternoon leads up to the ‘Christmas Light Switch On’ at the Radstock Miner’s Wheel at about 5:00pm.
The Museum’s Education Team will be on hand to welcome you and tell you about life in Radstock during Victorian times. There will be a free Victorian themed family trail for you to try.
The tea room will be open for the sale of hot and cold drinks and snacks. The Museum shop will also be open so that you can browse for Christmas gifts.

Young visitors are welcome at Radstock Museum
We love having young visitors in the Museum and we have activities to suit all ages.
The Museum has a couple of permanent children’s trails:
- The Ammonite Trail – Find Amy Ammonite and her friends
- Bob the Coal Miner Trail – Look for the tools that Bob needs for his job
Trails are included with your admission ticket and the usual admission charges and opening times apply. Museum tickets are valid for 1 year so you can visit more than once for one fee.

Watch out for our seasonal trails!
New trails are advertised here on the website and on Facebook. Sign up for the Museum Newsletter to get news of special events
