Jane Austen Centre, Literary biographical museum in Bath, England

The Jane Austen Centre occupies a Georgian townhouse with exhibition rooms displaying artifacts, costumes, and documents related to the celebrated author's life and works.

Located at 40 Gay Street since 1999, the museum stands in the same neighborhood where Jane Austen resided during her formative years in Bath from 1801 to 1806.

The Centre maintains a collection of Regency period clothing, allowing visitors to experience the fashion trends that influenced characters in Northanger Abbey and Persuasion.

The museum opens daily from 9:45 AM to 5:30 PM, with guided tours starting every 30 minutes and including access to the exhibition spaces and Regency Tea Room.

A scientifically accurate wax figure of Jane Austen, created through forensic analysis and contemporary descriptions, stands as the centerpiece of the permanent exhibition.
