History of Museum of Chelmsford's Collections

A vintage painting of people looking at a collection of items.

Join us for an introduction to the history of the Museum of Chelmsford's collections, from the foundation of the Chelmsford Philosophical Society in 1830 and first museum at the Chelmsford Gaol, to our current home at Oaklands Park.

 We'll be exploring the surprising early star objects and some of the most recent additions to the collection.
