Museum currently closed for redevelopment

The exciting project to relocate the Museum of Oxford into new galleries within the Town Hall is progressing.

The Museum, which tells the story of Oxford and its people, closed the doors in its current site for the last time on Saturday 29 October 2011. The Museum will re-open in the Town Hall in Spring 2012.
