About

The Grosvenor Museum in Chester offers a captivating journey through time, housed in an impressive Victorian structure designed by Thomas Meakin Lockwood in 1885. This historical gem is particularly noted for its remarkable collection of Roman artifacts, providing a deep dive into Chester's past.

An informative video enhances the experience, and pleasant staff are on hand to enrich your visit. The museum's entry is free, though donations are encouraged, making it an accessible learning opportunity for school groups.
