About this Event
Huguenot Museum
Heritage Open Day: The Huguenot Museum is the only museum of Huguenot history in the UK. The Huguenots were French Protestants who escaped religious persecution from the 16th century onwards. The Huguenot Museum is delighted to announce that thanks to our NLHF funded project The Huguenot Museum – A New Future we are proudly displaying the Lethieullier Dolls House, on loan from the National Trust until May 2025.
This magnificent dolls house is an 18th century ‘Baby House’, given to Sarah Lethieullier (1722-1788), the teenage daughter of a Huguenot merchant. With a fascinating history, over 700 individual items including twelve dolls, this beautifully preserved house is shown for the first time in over 250 years away from the family home.
