Cambridge and County Folk Museum

The folk museum is housed in a delightful half-timbered building that once served as an inn. The collections show in detail the everyday life of Cambridge people over the past 400 years. Intriguing displays focus on crafts and trades, toys and games, and the perennial conflict between "town and gown" in Cambridge life. There is a recreation of a Victorian home and a pub scene. A regular program of temporary exhibits runs throughout the year and the museum ruuns a series of educational programs for young people.
