Oundle Museum is located in the former Courthouse of the beautiful stone built Market Town in Northamptonshire. The history of the town is evident from many of the current houses over 300 years old yet Oundle dates back to the Iron Age and can boast a rich history throughout the ages which are reflected in the Museum.

From the prehistoric to modern times Oundle Museum has much to offer including many exhibits from the Roman, Saxon and Medieval periods. Next to our permanent display gallery we have an exhibition room which changes each year so there is always something new to see.

Oundle Museum is an award winning Accredited Museum, wholly run by volunteers, with displays about our history from the prehistoric period to modern day. The Museum was officially opened in 1994, read more about the Museum History.
