Our second visit and just as enjoyable as our first. We loved looking around the various collections and talking about things we had seen before or learned about in school. The Jason and his Argonauts collection was great fun too. The museum is free to visit but donations are welcome. There is a children play area, cafe, gift shop, toilets, lockers and lockable buggy park.

Really nice museum! Definitely worth a visit. The staff are very friendly and also explain something about the exhibits if you have any questions. I also thought it was great that you can try out lots of things, such as putting on a Roman helmet. The museum also has a small cinema room where we watched Jumanji (free of charge). A very great experience in the museum deserves 5 stars

What an absolutely brilliant museum. We visited for an hour on our way home as a stop off point. So glad we did. It's so clean, fresh and light. The museum kept my little one engaged with different activities which were well thought out. The staff were super helpful and friendly. It's a shame we had a drink elsewhere as the cafe looked great. Highly recommended.

A really quaint little museum. Today it had an exhibition on, which was bright and colourful and in the museum part, there were some interactive pieces. I quite liked the dressing up part. I think I would have made a better maiden than a soldier though.

My visit to the Lincoln Museum was far more enjoyable than I anticipated. What I thought would be a brief exploration of Lincoln's history turned out to be a fantastical dive into the development of civilization. For a free venue, I was blown away by the quality of the museum. The museum excels at using a variety of engaging mediums, with many interactive displays, games to play, and recreations available to access for free among the vast amount of informative exhibits. The collection of historic items is impressive, featuring relics from the Romans, Vikings, and more. The museum itself is very modern, the building is beautiful, and the air conditioning was a godsend on a hot summer day. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. We even had a few interesting conversations with other visitors who were passionate about discussing history. If I have to find something to critique, it would be our experience returning in the evening for the launch of the games expo. The website stated a 6 pm start, but when we visited earlier in the day, the posters, flyers, and desk staff all said 5 pm. When we arrived at 5 pm, everything was locked, and we weren't allowed in until 6 pm. This was an inconvenience, as it used up our holiday time and required us to pay for parking. The expo itself was fine but did not exceed our expectations. Despite this minor inconvenience, my overall experience at the Lincoln Museum was outstanding, and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in history and interactive exhibits.

A fabulous afternoon. Thank you to the museum assistant (petite and with shirt hair) for her friendliness and superb knowledge- You enhanced our visit no end. Thank you. The cafe didn't feel very welcoming.
