Where can you see fighter jets and dinosaurs, Egyptian mummies and aardvarks?

The answer is that they are all to be found in museums in Cambridgeshire!

There are over 30 museums in Cambridgeshire offering an enormous range of collections in a wide variety of different settings. They vary from small museums of local history to the large-scale national collections of the Imperial War Museum at Duxford.

Cambridgeshire’s museums work together with the Cambridgeshire Museums Advisory Partnership to improve museum services and provision across the County.

There is no statutory level of museum provision or entitlement in the UK which has led to wide variations of service.

Museums in Cambridgeshire are provided in a range of different ways, by independent charitable trusts, the University of Cambridge and by local government.
