Brightlingsea Museum

Brightlingsea Museum

Brightlingsea is a small town with a big history! Our museum, founded in 1989, opened in new purpose-built premises in 2020 and now we think we rank amongst the best local museums in the country! We offer two exciting trails – the Bricklesey Mouse Trail for younger visitors to the museum and the Town Heritage Trail for families and adults. We also have our unique Beach Hut souvenir shop.

Whether you drop in for half an hour or half a day, there is plenty to explore, engage and excite you, whatever your age or interests. So pop along and maybe you’ll have the ‘Time of your Life’ too!
