A great place to visit. The house has a lot of exhibits and good information boards. The volunteer on duty was very nice - not only giving me a lot of detail about the house but also giving me a local map and a number of ideas of things to see and do on my visit to Lichfield.

Enjoyable visit. Good museum. Staff friendly. Film good about Samuel Johnson . Some of interactive displays did not work. Books and souvenirs for sale. Would benefit from a toilet on site.

Visited with my wife during a visit to Lichfield. Quite a surprise, and based around a book shop, this journey around the family home, explains the life and times of Samuel Johnson who arguably invented the English dictionary. Fascinating historical view of Victorian Life and free of charge. Well worth a visit.

The Samuel Johnson Birthplace Museum is a delightful gem in Lichfield. Stepping inside feels like traveling back in time, offering a charming glimpse into the life of one of England's greatest literary figures.

Visited with family from the USA and have to say having lived in Lichfield for two years we should have visited sooner.
The welcome we received brought us up to speed with everything Samuel Johnson and the house , so enthusiastic.
The house has five floors and no lift so if your mobility is poor consider before entering.
Excellent museum and supported by donations only, no admission charge.

Kevin was super welcoming, he explained about the history of the house, the tour diagram of the house. What we could do in each room. He explained their were cats in rooms and gave us a check sheet.
We enjoyed dressing up, calligraphy, puzzles, climbing up all the stairs to visit the room and learning more about Samuel Johnson. Our daughter also received an Olympic medal. Thank you for a lovely morning. Kevin is amazing!
