Letchworth Museum opened in 1914 to house the collections of the Letchworth
Naturalists' Society since then the museum has expanded greatly in both size
and scope. The attractive downstairs Natural History Gallery shows examples
of local wildlife in realistic settings - including the famous Letchworth
Black Squirrel - as well as displays on the geology of the area.
The Art Gallery and Mezzanine Gallery upstairs house monthly changing
exhibitions of paintings, photography and craft, much of which is for sale.
Along the corridor, the extensive Archaeology Gallery shows how people have
lived in this area for thousands of years.
