Visit Stamford Museum to find out more about the 'finest stone town in England'.

The museum houses the Stamford Tapestry which was finished in 2000 and took 17 years to complete.  It depicts the town's history and includes many of the town's churches, buildings, industries and people. 

The upper gallery contains displays on the history and development of the town from its Saxon origins through to its more recent industrial past. Look out for the Stamford Mint coins, Stamford Ware pottery, displays on the castle, Daniel Lambert and Tom Thumb and objects from World War I and II.

There is a regular programme of temporary exhibitions, which are displayed in the Lower Gallery.
