The existing, much-praised Museum has been extended and recreated as a 21st century interactive museum, whose revitalised theme is the city itself and its often turbulent story.

Hands-on activities have been specially designed to appeal to family groups -you can look at gold thread and medieval poo under the microscope, open the Elizabethan treasure chest to help you decide on Marlowe's death or do some 'friend or foe' wartime plane-spotting.

The new and enlarged interactive Museum of Canterbury is in the medieval Poor Priests' Hospital on the riverbank in Stour Street in the centre of historic Canterbury.

Open all year, Monday - Saturday, 10.30 - 17.00 (last admission 16.00).

Also open from June to the end of September on Sunday 13.30 - 17.00 (last admission 16.00).

Admission prices:

Adults: £3.10

Concessions: £2.10

Family: £8.20 (2 adults and up to 3 children)

Groups of 10+: 10% discount, Teachers free
