Museum really interesting. Docent officious. Water would not come on in the bathroom and she implied we should have known you had to approach from the side of the sink and wait for something to cycle…..

Lewes is chock full of interesting history, which is superbly displayed here. In addition to the unique exhibits, there's a gallery of local art as well as an interactive children's section. A place to take the whole family.

Great little museum. Wonderful exhibits on life throughout the ages in and around Delawares oldest town. Cheap entry fee, only takes an hour or two to see/read everything.
