Weymouth Museum, Local history museum in Brewers Quay, Weymouth, England

The Weymouth Museum occupies spaces within the Brewers Quay building, displaying collections that document the evolution of this coastal town through artifacts and exhibits.

Founded in 1972 at the former Melcombe Regis Boys' School, the museum relocated to Brewers Quay in 1990 following the harbor area redevelopment project.

The museum presents exhibitions about maritime traditions, local customs, and the development of Weymouth from its origins as a trading port through its growth.

Visitors can explore the museum collections during opening hours, with temporary exhibitions rotating throughout the year to showcase different aspects of local heritage.

The museum maintains records and objects from the Georgian period when King George III made Weymouth his summer residence, transforming the town's social structure.
