Dunwich Museum

Dunwich Museum From great port to tiny hamlet in 700 years. This is the story of erosion and decline. A small museum with a big story. It's well worth the visit.

Dunwich Museum is a small independent museum maintained by volunteers and donations from visitors. The museum tells the story of the great medieval town on the Suffolk coast that was lost to the sea. Dunwich is now a small village but was once the most important port on the east coast of Britain. The museum houses a collection of artefacts from Roman times onwards. There is also an evocative model

of the large medieval town and a local volunteer on hand to explain the dramatic story of coastal change. The museum has made a 45 minute film about this amazing story. A 3 minute version is available to view within the museum. The museum is family friendly and welcomes all ages.
