Chepstow Museum Museums
Chepstow Museum displays the rich and varied past of this ancient town, once an important port and market centre. There are displays of Chepstow's wine trade, shipbuilding and salmon fishing as well as photographs, programmes and posters recalling the pastimes of local people. The 18th and 19th century paintings and prints illustrate the everlasting appeal of Chepstow and the Wye Valley to artists and tourists alike.
The Museum is just across the road from Chepstow Castle in an elegant 18th century house built by a prosperous Chepstow merchant family. The building is named Gwy House and has fascinating tales to tell about prominent people in Chepstow's past.
