About this Event
Almonry Museum & Tourist Information Centre
This 14th Century building was once home to the Almoner of the Benedictine Abbey that was founded at Evesham in the 8th Century.
Today the Almonry houses an eclectic collection that spans the prehistoric to the 20th Century. Displayed over 12 rooms and a garden, the emphasis is on how Evesham has developed and grown during this time. There are exhibitions about the Abbey, the battle of Evesham in 1265, horticulture in the area, Anglo-Saxon burial treasure, 18th Century clothing and the impact of war upon this little market town.
For children, this is a wonderful place full of exciting treasures to discover and explore with their family and friends. During school holidays Activity Packs are available with trails, puzzles and crafts for children to do.
