First time in Taunton and visited on a wet winters day. No queue and pretty quiet, we had a leisurely wander around. The museum is a gold mine of information about the history of the local area. Set inside a lovely castle it's well laid out and very welcoming. We had an interesting conversation with a guide about the coin hoards that have been discovered and also some of the jewellery found. We spent 2 to 3 hours at the site, and were pleased to have found it

Tucked away in the castle courtyard is this gem of a museum. Free entry, with a café and imaginatively presented exhibits.Visited on

A must visit if in the area!
We made an impromptu stop at Taunton on our drive back home from North Devon for a spot of lunch and decided to pop in with our children. Museum itself is housed in a castle and very well maintained, with a picturesque courtyard and cafe. As soon as we entered, we were welcomed so kindly by the guides. The exhibitions were very well curated and children were fascinated (dinosaur skeleton, Roman mosaic, horde of coins etc).
There was also an art exhibition of a local artist which was worth visiting - wood cuts, paintings and metal sculptures.

This is a great museum, suggested donation to enter, (which is nice if you are strapped), and had something for everyone. There are fossilized dinosaurs, Roman mosaics and coins, medieval artifacts, and a sweet cafe in a beautiful courtyard.Visited on

Very good museum with a series of interesting galleries featuring differing aspects of the natural and human history of Somerset. I found it interesting and manageable in the amount of information presented. Worth a visit.Visited on
