Inside a Victorian quayside warehouse, the museum tells the story of the historic maritime town of Poole.
The collections at the gallery cover a timescale from prehistory to the 21st-century, with four galleries available for you to discover: the ground floor gallery which takes you back to prehistory and the formation of Poole Harbour, the first floor gallery which includes highlights from the museum’s maritime collection, the second floor gallery where the stories of the people of Poole are told and the third floor gallery which exhibits a collection of Poole pottery.
