Since 1903 Hertford Museum has been a much loved local museum, with fascinating objects that tell the story of the county town.
Following a Heritage Lottery Fund award of £985,000 in 2007 the museum has undergone a major refurbishment and is now an accessible, fun and fascinating museum where everyone can enjoy, engage with and be inspired by their heritage.
