An absolute tardis of a building and currently no fee to enter. Primarily military history but also a room of poetry to. Thoroughly recommend if you have an afternoon free.

Taunton의 아주 오래된 과거부터 근대의 사진까지 잘 정리된 박물관입니다. 무료이지만 많은 것들을 보고 배울 수 있으며 주변의 정원도 아름답습니다.

Just such an amazing place, fantastic for the kids and so many interesting things, highly recommend for a day out for all the family, has a cafe but prices are on the high side. Its free to get in so it's a no brainer if you're bored.

I will start with the facts then move on to opinion. There is a suggested donation of around £3 per person to enter. The museum is split into sections with parts on the left and right of the reception. It takes about 2 hours to take in all of the exhibits and every now and then they have things on for the kids downstairs, trails for holidays and they also do guided walks and theme days. I've never done these and don't know the info about them, but the Web site and social media pages are kept up to date and are informative. Opinion... I LOVE THIS PLACE and feel so comfortable being in the building. The staff are so friendly and they do not make you feel awkward if you don't donate to go in. They do run on donations so even a pound helps if you can afford it. I've never met a rude member of staff or volunteer and have been welcomed by all. This does appeal to all ages and you really can spend a long time getting immersed in the history. It is all based on Somerset, however it is also broadly ranged as a lot of items are common in places outside of the county so you have broad and localised items and information. I have to recommend the military museum if you like military history, or even if you don't. This is one of our family wide hobbies and my son and I spent over an hour in there today, despite us having been a lot of times before. We even bumped into my teen and her partner who were also visiting which says a lot of about the welcoming nature of the place as they were greeted in the same manner as we were and felt comfortable being in there. The staff and volunteers are always willing to talk to you if you wish it but they do not force information upon you. I do have to say that volunteers are the backbone of museums and if you have the time, they can tell you so many things that will bring history alive so don't take them for granted. The cafe has some tasty stuff and isn't too pricey like most historical places. I cannot recommend this place enough. Have fun!
