Housed
in the unique setting of the former All Saints Church in 1957, the
Museum focuses on the rich natural heritage of north-east Essex. Travel
from the open through the salt marshes and beaches to the more familiar
urban environments of the park. Discover what rocks lie beneath your
feet with a look at local geology. You can even find out what lurks
in your garden!
There are hands-on-displays, live animals plus a chuchyard nature
reserve and a well stocked shop. So if you've always wondered about
the wildlife in Colchester and that includes you! - why not pop in?
It's free!
