Based in an old building - Johnson's actual birthplace - in the centre of Lichfield. Is a very interesting visit but not good for disabled as there are stairs to climb.
An interesting and tempting selection of second hand books to buy.

A detailed and interesting overview of Samuel Johnson's life, focusing much more on the biographical than his work (in comparison to the museum at his London house). Good material on his collaborations with Garrick in particular. As a donations only attraction, this is very impressive

and what more can you want? The museum stretches over five floors (and might not therefore be suitable for visitors with mobility problems) and is well worth visiting. Free admission, too! Add to this an excellent range of second-hand books, and it's bibliophile heaven.

Opened at 10am. On entry was met by a very pleasant and knowledgeable lady. Free entry but donations welcome. A very well presented museum, extremely interesting - and im not a museum lover !!!

We greatly enjoyed our visit to Dr Johnson`s Museum,which gave free entry ,with an optional donation if you wish. There are 5 floors of exhibits showing the History of the great man & a thoroughly interesting 10 minute video on his life. Well worth a visit.

We went here today and like Darwins house in Lichfield it is free with enthusiastic people welcoming you in. It is a big building with many floors and we saw the video first which is very good. The floors are based on segments of his life so I would start at the bottom and work my way up to the attic. There are lots of artefacts to see and the bookshop at the ground level has books for sale and memorabilia. Very much worth a visit

A subtle mix of understatement and manic enthusiasm bring this place to life and goes some way into explain the life of Dr Johnson. Somehow embodies Lichfield; great history and elegance and now feeling ready to show itself off to the world.

This is a great small museum centrally located. It's free to enter (but you should leave a donation) and an interesting look back at Samuel Johnson's life and times in the house of his birth.
