The museum is located in a historic house from the 17th.? century. There is no entry charge. the town of Hertford is famous for a palace which no longer exists and a toothbrush factory. All the items are well described and well presented and there are some technologically presented items such as the oral history.
It is well worth a visit.

Visited this great little museum for the first time and loved it! Some of the exhibits may be small but are exceptional, we were really surprised at the kinds of exhibits, some you would only expect to see in major national museums. There are two floors and male,female and disabled toilets as well as a lift for wheelchairs to the first floor, we thought the provision was really good. The little shop was well stocked with interesting items for children and the interactive technology was good for interested youngsters. Easily accessed from the bus station and opposite the theatre in the centre of town. There is no cafe but coffee outlets abound in the area. Really recommend.

Took five grandchildren aged between 4-12 on the train to Hertford East for an Easter holiday activity. Our aim was to visit the museum, a ten minute walk from the station.
The staff were very helpful and gave us a lovely welcome. The displays were excellent and young person focused. We sat in the peaceful garden and ate our sandwiches. A fascinating and interesting couple of hours. Highly recommended.

We were exploring the town and decided on the spot to pop in and find out some of the history of the town. It is free, and an hour is enough. Toothbrushes, gloves and the seat of government during the Plague interested us most.

for anyone thinking about coming to the wonderful Hertford, make sure that you take yourself down to the Hertford Museum. Golly golly gosh, I had the time of my life playing with the little wooden till upstairs and I love listening to everyone's stories. I live in Hertford, and I go there every Saturday! it never gets old and there always a new adventure in store at this fabulous place. Best day of my life was when my non-binary soulmate (who identifies as the number one on the wooden till) got down on one knee... and gave me his non-binary, non-identifiable wisdom of life. It was a special moment! And from that day on, Grover (my huzzy) and Periwinkle (our joint pearls of wisdom) have never looked back. We now live in Stowmarket on our ferret farm.

Ho veramente apprezzato la visita a questo museo nel pieno centro storico di Hertford. L'esposizione è su due livelli e c'è anche un giardino interno in cui avere una sosta. Il museo ripercorrere tutta la storia di Hertford sino ai giorni nostri. Interessante la disposizione di tutte le personalità legate ad Hertford dalla sua costituzione.
