Museo de Yorkshire

Experiencia fantástica: Was really nice. It's paid, but I feel it's worth it. There are boat rides available behind the museum and an ice cream boat, which is also nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Good museum, tries to reach young audience through innovative means. We visited on a rainy day to get some respite. Can be completed in a couple of hours.

Experiencia positiva: A lovely museum. The Star Carr exhibition is great.

Experiencia fantástica: Easy, accessible museum that clearly explains the ancient history of York and displays hundreds of ancient artifacts from the Iron and Bronze ages to Roman and Medieval times.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing place in stunning surroundings with lovely staff!

Experiencia fantástica: Not a large museum but informative and fun. It's child-friendly and covers a range of distinct periods within the history of what is now Yorkshire - from the Jurassic era to the Medieval.

Experiencia positiva: This was overwhelming... Don't get me wrong the collection is AMAZING. It was just so much to sink in and so much text to read. We may have missed it or it wasn't clear but an audio book I think would have been really good for this place. Or make several visits if you have time. I think the main parts I struggled with it sometimes felt like we kept jumping back and forth between different time periods like here's some Tudor stuff oh look we're back to Vikings. I'm not diagnosed with ADHD but I struggled to stand still whilst my bf kept reading the endless facts. (Which isn't a bad thing). I just couldn't concentrate... I'm a very visual learner so seeing lots of walls of text was slightly daunting which is why I think an audio guide would have been so much better! There is KIDS stuff to interact with which is cool. I think they are needed for such a full on factual packed museum. One thing that I did really struggle with was the naming system they had. Where they have the things numbered then on the side it'll tell you which thing is related to that number. I don't know why but I had to keep asking my bf which is which because sometimes I didn't get it. You'd think labelling each one with numbers would be easy but for some reason it wasn't in some cases .

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic location for the Shed Seven homecoming concerts. Well organised and amazing scenery. Would like to come back and explore on a "normal" day.

Experiencia fantástica: Beautiful place to relax an walk round. I had a amazing evening listening to jack savoretti Saturday orsum voice in a lovely setting

Experiencia fantástica: Well worth visit for local history .

Experiencia fantástica: Loved the Starr Carr exhibits.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice well organized museum.

Experiencia fantástica: İt is a must seen.

Experiencia positiva: Nice little museum and gardens not far from the minster. Worth a visit

Experiencia fantástica: A perfect museum if you are visiting with children or teens: has a lot of activities to explore history of the city.

Experiencia positiva: Saw the Starr Carr exhibition which was very good, well presented with good information and interactive elements for younger attendees

Experiencia negativa: I was taking my son as a treat as he loves dinosaurs I hoped this would be a great day out bit it turned out it was a waste of time not much their about dinosaurs my son was disappointed and wanted to leave will never return

Experiencia positiva: My partner and I visited whilst we were in york. I would say the museum is more for kids, but the outside of the building and the gardens are beautiful to look at.

Experiencia fantástica: What a gem this spot is. From a stunning prehistoric fossil, through Iron Age ritual items, an extensive Roman collection, and even more Medieval pieces, this place really brings the history alive.

Experiencia positiva: Lovely museum, friendly and informative staff but unless you are really interested in Roman and medieval local history, to be honest it was wasted on me.

Experiencia fantástica: Lovely museum with loads of authentic exhibits from stone age onwards. Plenty to cater for adults and children (dinosaur and fossil exhibits, Roman dressing up, etc.) Some stairs as on three levels. Set in the lovely gardens and by ruins.

Experiencia fantástica: Great local museum, lots of information and artifacts.

Experiencia fantástica: Interesting museum loafs of really great exhibits to see really enjoyed it

Experiencia fantástica: Enjoyed our visit, nicely laid out artifacts to see with good explanations alongside.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing museum !

Experiencia fantástica: Lovely staff and really interesting exhibits. I especially loved the Etruscan Mosaic and Roman collection.

Experiencia positiva: We visited on Saturday 2nd June with our w daughters 8 and 6, we thoroughly enjoyed this museum and the girls were treated to some Roman and Greek legends told by a very friendly and knowledgeable chap who invited them to stand on the Roman mosaic. He made the visit!!!

Experiencia positiva: This is a lovely and interesting place to visit. Thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Learned a lot about the area and its history. We had no difficulty getting in but during school holidays it maybe wise to book tickets in advance.

Experiencia fantástica: Great little museum. Plenty to entertain kids and interesting things for adults to view. Cheap entry. You can pay once and come back as often as you like over the next year.

Experiencia positiva: Lovely gardens and great to see the historic ruins, wouldn’t rate the Museum much, good for young family and kids.

Experiencia fantástica: Had a great time here with my daughter and Grandson. Plenty to see and do for all ages.

Experiencia negativa: Full of bones and stones not worth £10 full of children laid on the floor

Experiencia fantástica: Great museum, a lot of history to see

Experiencia fantástica: Perfect sunny spring day to visit these waterside gardens, very tidy place.

Experiencia fantástica: Very well presented historical stuff with good detail and some good activities to keep kids amused.

Experiencia fantástica: Not a massive museum but lots to see. Great for the kids. Tickets last all year. As a veteran,disabled I got in for free.

Experiencia fantástica: Informative, interesting and good for a family visit.

Experiencia positiva: Informative and interesting museum with around 4 exhibitions, taking you through local history.

Experiencia positiva: I did enjoyed my visit. I am.glad we come straight after opening time, as.ut does get busy and noisy. It is popular with families and kids...specially when weather is not great.

Experiencia fantástica: Brilliant value for money friendly service and very well laid out

Experiencia fantástica: The museum has an interesting exhibition about the history of the city from the ice age until today. Some parts are not very well organised and the museum can defiantly benefit from a bit of modernisation but overall I'd still highly recommend a visit.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing amount of history and excellent visuals

Experiencia fantástica: Two unique exhibits. One is the history of people in York from the end odd the ice age and the other is of York during the Jurassic period when it was part of the ocean floor. Definitely worth the money.

Experiencia positiva: Interactive, bit pricey, but your ticket is open for 12 months . Great history tour. Child friendly, disabled access, in gorgeous surroundings. Love the gift shop.

Experiencia positiva: We ran here as we have some spare time between booked places. It was relatively affordable and easy to find with beautiful gardens. They had an exhibit called star carr, and I'm sill not sure what it's about. The rest of the museum was really interesting.

Experiencia fantástica: Great museum in a the heart of York. Yorkshire Museum is nestled in museum gardens so is perfect for families and those wanting to have a nice walk. Museum is really well resourced and good for young children (3 years old) to adults. The dinosaur exhibit is really interesting and well laid out. Worth a visit if you are coming to York.

Experiencia fantástica: Great place for families. Museum organised by historical eras. Some amazing exhibits. Gift shop and toilets available.

Experiencia positiva: Nice museum for visit with family. Nice park is there nearby where we can walk and enjoy the sightseeing.

Experiencia positiva: Good museum, but could do with a cafe

Experiencia fantástica: Brilliantly curated. Interesting for all ages. Roman exhibition fantastic.

Experiencia fantástica: Very fun and has lots of areas to let the kids energy out and learn.

Experiencia positiva: Some exceptional pieces and the entire space is pleasant for viewing. The collection isn't too large, but certainly worth viewing.

Experiencia fantástica: Good experience. Went with young child and each room had an activity. The storyteller was engaging. Overall interesting and worth the money.

Experiencia fantástica: Always a good day out, even if wet it's a nice tranquil walk through the gardens along the river, the gallery is great and very nice ice cream store at the entrance. Really close to bus stops and city center so can't get stranded for anything

Experiencia negativa: Wife and I were looking forward to going but admissions charges turned us off, we'd already paid for York art gallery and other places. Most offer no concessions for OAPs. So much for encouraging culture! Funny how government has money to spare for free British Museum and its ilk in London while councils elsewhere are starved of funds for their local amenities.

Experiencia fantástica: A great local history museum. We spent about an hour in it and enjoyed the information and interactive elements. The gardens at the front of the museum are well worth a walk around or sit in.

Experiencia fantástica: I visited the museum on Tuesday 20th. I found the reception staff were ever so polite and kind, explaining the museum layout to me in great detail, and then pointed me in the direction of the first exhibit, which was about the Roman history of York. I loved the rooms enormously, and enjoyed the placards explaining each item as well as the items themselves. On to the next room, which was about the medieval history of York, and again, this area was intriguing and a kind gallery attendee was eager and ready to ask any questions I may have had, which was a really highlight as all staff members seemed to be very passionate about their work (and the joy on their faces when talking about the museum was heart-warming). The final room was about the Jurassic times, dinosaurs and fossils, and as with the previous rooms, there was plenty of explanation about each item and it's importance to York. One thing I loved was the idea that your entry to the museum (which is cheaper to book online) is valid for a year, so you pay once and can go all year. This is a really good draw for the museum, but I'd pay to go again.

Experiencia positiva: Very interesting and lots of artefacts. Lovely staff and relaxed atmosphere. There's also stuff for kids to do here, like look for fossils, make coin impressions etc. The old library upstairs was nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Plenty of Roman and Medieval artefacts. Great for children with interactive learning and dressing up

Experiencia fantástica: Went specially for the dinosaur exhibition. Relatively small but had local artifacts. Dinosaur elements were the star of the show. Staff were friendly.

Experiencia positiva: Great for local history. Very focused on kids' education and interactivity, so if you're really into history and archaeology, don't plan on spending masses of time.

Experiencia fantástica: Absolute gem of a museum. Great size, incredibly high quality exhibits covering fossils, neolithic, Roman, and more modern periods. Great for kids too (with topical costumes to wear in most rooms!). Definitely worth the ticket price and ~1 hour it takes to see everything.

Experiencia positiva: Brilliant place if you want to know more about York and it's surroundings from years past.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent museum with good exhibitions showing the rich history of York from the age of the dinosaurs to the medieval period. Well laid out and presented across three floors with interactive exhibits for younger visitors. Well worth a visit.

Experiencia fantástica: Lots of interesting things to discover and see. Plenty of activity rooms within museum well worth a visit to to a days activities.

Experiencia fantástica: Really interesting museum, ranging from dinosaurs through mesolithic head dresses, Romans, Anglian rulers, Viking invaders, mediaeval life and Tudor dissolution of monasteries to civil war battles. The museum incorporates part of the ruins of St Mary's Abbey. There are great activities for children including lots if dressing up and the priviledge if walking over a Roman mosaic floor. Loved the icthyosaurus skeletons!

Experiencia fantástica: We had a great time, fab museum with interesting artefacts. Highlight was a talk we attended on the Vikings. The person giving the talk was so engaging and such a good speaker - this was the best, most interesting museum talk I have ever been to. They apologised for "waffling on" when answering questions at the end but in all honesty I could have sat and listened to them all day.

Experiencia positiva: We saved a few quid by ordering tickets in advance, always a bonus. The staff were very accomodating and knowledgeable when answering your questions. The exhibits are well layed out by period, with written explanation of items. York is a very historical place and it's development over the centuries is well explained and shown throughout the museum.

Experiencia fantástica: Really good day. Lots to see and informative.

Experiencia fantástica: My nine year old daughter and I hadn't actually planned to go in to this museum but as we walked through the gardens we were compelled to. So glad we did. It was so interesting with lots to see, very child friendly.

Experiencia fantástica: Really interesting and must not be missed. Fascinating exhibits. The lovely gardens are a bonus.

Experiencia fantástica: A lovely building set in very nice gardens, the building presents a excellent variety of local history ranging from fossils that are millions of years old, through Roman times - the little bust of Marcus Aurelius is awesome - and through into the Tudor period. Not a huge museum but full of interesting things.

Experiencia fantástica: Good price. I enjoyed the history of York, the inclusion of female dinosaur researchers, the history on the stone/bronze/iron age and the Romans involvement in the UK. Its a good size museum where you can read and engage in everything in about 3 hours.

Experiencia fantástica: Great selection of exhibitions that should provide something to please everyone, all based around the local history of Yorkshire. The exhibitions contain a mixture of text and more interactive activities, as well as some displays specifically targeted to children. You can even pick up kids' activity sheets free of charge. On the top floor is a reading/quiet room for those looking for a bit of a sit down. The shop contains a range of gifts, including some quirkier offerings! The tickets are a little expensive but worth the money. The only annoying thing is that there is no cafe, but there is a mobile vendor outside - and there is no better way to enjoy your coffee than whilst walking around the museum's gorgeous gardens.

Experiencia fantástica: Great museum to dive into and get away from the crowds. One of the best prehistoric experiences I've had in terms of things to look at and read etc. All the local exhibitions are also amazing. We'll worth the entry fee and the library was like something out of a storybook.

Experiencia fantástica: Loved our visit to the museum very interesting place

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent museum with displays about local history, especially the Roman and medieval periods. Clear, up-to-date information and friendly and helpful staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Good museum in centre of Museum Gardens in York. Had access card for entry which is worth looking into if you live in York. Good section showing dinosaurs and had dressing up clothes, books and film for children.

Experiencia fantástica: We did run out of time to do it justice but the staff were great at providing pointers for mustn't miss. Will go again and give it more time. Well laid out, clean and full of information.

Experiencia fantástica: Very interesting Museum. It is set on a hill, with a beautiful garden around it.

Experiencia positiva: There was no particular structured layout in the museum but very interesting with displays of Vikings, Romans and prehistoric/dinosaurs. Enjoyed by all 4 of us that attended

Experiencia fantástica: Visited the Yorkshire Museum with my husband, we hadn't originally planned this but had some free time before our train. We purchased tickets at the ticket desk and were informed these were annual tickets so good to know we can revisit at no extra cost! There was lots to look at (coins, skeletons found in and around York, mosaics, pottery, jurrasic skeletons and fossils!) and there was plenty of interactive exhibits too such as creating your own rubbings, or building a mosaic (do believe these are mostly aimed at kids so a good day out for families too!). Well worth a visit if you're in the area, we spent roughly an hour and half here so doesn't take up too much of your day either!

Experiencia positiva: It's not bad, but it can work out to be a bit expensive for what it is... Having said that my kids enjoyed it

Experiencia fantástica: So much to see and it’s free, just give a donation

Experiencia fantástica: Lots of things to see as well. Quite easy to locate. Entrance reads - Yorkshire Musuem

Experiencia positiva: It loses its fifth star because of the admission price (£9.50). But it is a very good history museum. The roman and anglo-saxon rooms are magnificent. Walk-on (barefoot) roman mosaic.

Experiencia fantástica: Great for visiting with kids

Experiencia positiva: Nice place for a quick visit, this is a manageable size museum for seeing in about one hour or just over. I really enjoyed the Roman artifacts, the fossils, and particularly the explanation of how the prehistoric layers built up to form the rocks in what is now Yorkshire. The large ichthyosaur skeleton is very impressive. The prices were fair for the unique artifacts on show, and the museum was not too busy, so we could see everything very easily. The location is just near to the Marygate car park which is council run and easy to find, so this easy to fit in at the start or end of a day trip to York.

Experiencia positiva: Excellent Roman and medieval exhibits. Especially the weapons and jewelry. But the whole museum is more focused on fun interactive learning for children.

Experiencia positiva: Great museum child friendly, closes at 16.00 on Sunday. Worth a visit for reasonable price. Ice in summer to wonder around the gardens and view the Abbey remains. Staff are friendly and helpful

Experiencia negativa: My little boy has autism and while we was there he was carrying his train around with him which makes noises. One of the workers in the fist exhibition (old blonde woman) decided to come over to us and ask if she could take his train off of him and take it to the front desk as it will be distracting for other people in the museum. What gave her the right to ask to take my boys stuff off of him because it might be distracting for others? It would’ve been more distracting if he was having a full blown meltdown. I shouldn’t of had to explain myself and my little boy to her. Me and my partner felt disgusted and embarrassed that she was questioning us. Also, the Jurassic world was absolutely poor, what a waste of time and money.

Experiencia fantástica: Very informative and helpful museum.

Experiencia fantástica: I went to the museum just before 4pm, worrying that I might not have enough time to see all the items in the museum. The museum staff Kayleigh Hunter came to my rescue. She led me and another visitor around the medieval hall, showed us the treasures and some of her favourites in the museum. I really love the way she shared the stories behind the artefacts. She talked about the Vikings just like some of her old friends. Thank you very much for the interesting introduction, Kayleigh :)

Experiencia fantástica: We have not been here for a while, so it was great to return. Fantastic new exhibits. Make sure you give plenty of time for your visit. Thoroughly recommended.

Experiencia positiva: Fun interactive museum with lots of activities for children. Will take around 1 hour or so to go around. Plus little extra for gardens. Central York. Toilets but no cafe. Small shop. Little pricey for size of museum.

Experiencia fantástica: I went on a weekday without prebooking and got in without a wait but I would definitely prebook on a weekend or school holidays. It's not very big but that means you can really take in what is there. I also appreciate the seating which is available. I spent about 2 1/2 hours there and would recommend a visit

Experiencia positiva: Wish it was free. But the museum gardens are free though. Very pretty.

Experiencia fantástica: Really good place with so much to learn. My recommendation is to listen to the Anglo saxon talk. The girl who does it is knowledgeable, funny and friendly. She wrote it herself and deserves praise for that. It takes about 20 minutes but she explains things so well you learn alot. The whole place is brilliant though.

Experiencia fantástica: Fantastic museum. Love how there's a whole timeline going from prehistoric ages all the way to current times. Very friendly staff, made the experience even better. 100% would recommend a visit.

Experiencia fantástica: The gardens are wonderful with the ruins of St. Mary's Abbey but the museum was fantastic. Lots great pieces to look at and will easily spend 90 minutes to 2 hours wondering around. Much bigger and much more to explore inside than you'd think
