Milton Keynes Museum

Milton Keynes Museum is an independent institution set in a Victorian farmstead that holds collections from various aspects of life and work. The building itself is part of the historical story, and its rooms display what people once owned and used.

The institution was founded in 1973 and takes its name from an early collection that preserved local artifacts. Objects date back to 1800 and show how this area developed over generations.

The collections reveal how people in this area lived and worked through objects that tell stories of daily tasks and trades. The exhibitions show family life, farming, and craftsmanship from before modern times.

The museum is located at McConnell Drive near H2 Miller's Way and offers free parking on site. Visitors should check opening times beforehand since it does not open every day of the week.

A special exhibition features historic telephones and switchboards that visitors can actually operate and try out. Among these is a rare vintage telephone model that is seldom seen elsewhere.
