Visiting the Museum

The Museum is open throughout the year, except Christmas Week and Bank Holidays:-
See facebook page for latest opening times.
Admission is free.

We welcome groups, preferably with a few days notice. The Curator will gladly arrange to be on hand, or to give a short talk. The Museum becomes congested with around thirty visitors, so we advise that larger groups split.

The Curator will allow researchers access to items not on display by prior appointment.

The Robert Owen Museum is easily found, being on the ground floor of the Town Council building in the centre of Newtown, opposite the Town Clock.
There are two car parks within easy walking distance. It is ten minutes walk to the railway station. There is a two-hourly train service from Birmingham.
Other things to see in Newtown include Robert Owen's Tomb and Statue, and the Textile Museum.

An educational resource pack can be found on our associated website at Legacies That Last

A Simple Quiz and a more difficult Quiz Sheet are available for school visits. Teachers are welcome to download them and make copies before their visit.
