The Lancaster Cottage Museum is the smallest museum in the city, where you can discover more about Lancaster.

The Museum, facing Lancaster Castle and just a short walk from the Judges Lodgings, is part of a 1739 house, subdivided in about 1820 and furnished as an artisan's house of that date.

This wonderfully immersive museum provides an intimate glimpse of early Victorian life in a tiny and intriguing 18th-century cottage, which is (you wouldn't know to look at it) spread over five floors.
