Moyse's Hall Museum

An absolute hidden gem in the centre of bury St Edmunds. I don't want to post too many photos as it would spoil the wonder of the place but the included post is one of the rarest original pieces in the crime and punishment section, even the Tower of London doesn't have an original. Either way, onto the experience, upon arriving you get your tickets or have the prepaid ones ready where you can either go in and explore as you wish or seek guidance (I highly recommend talking to those at the entrance, as they will talk with passion about what is available to view). Our group attended to view the conflict exhibits which were brilliant and some of the pieces were completely unexpected. Such as a weapon allegedly used to kill Bonnie and Clyde along with original pieces from the Battle of Fornham. There are even replica items you can touch, feel and try, which I imagine would be wonderful for children. As someone who is very keen on historical warfare it was just a wonderful experience and the additional sections were just as fascinating as the conflict aspects. I simply could not recommend this place more.

SO INTERESTING! obsessed with the true crime section, and the art and clocks were incredible. A fantastic resource of history and vibrant. An excellent way to spend a couple of hours. Also the man in the clock room and lady on reception were incredibly kind and great to talk to
