Royal Cornwall Museum
'The Royal Cornwall Museum is an essential place to come to if you are fascinated by Cornwall' - Kurt Jackson, artist: if you want to see an Egyptian mummy, explorers' medicine chest and a wide range of Cornish and British art, head to the Royal Cornwall Museum. In our British Museum partnership gallery you can build a Greek temple, have a go in our Mummy Factory and crack ancient codes.
The natural history gallery introduces the plants, fungi and animals of Cornwall and there is the opportunity to get up close to specimens. We have an internationally significant mineral collection on permanent display.
