Felixstowe Museum

Housed within the Ravelin Block of the neighbouring Landguard Fort, the building was once home to a submarine mining establishment.

The museum is managed by a team of friendly volunteers who are always happy to help. Their expertise is second to none and is always delivered with enthusiasm and a passion for history.

A real ‘hidden’ treasure – adults and children alike can discover all sorts of amazing stuff in fourteen different rooms, from costumes and model planes, to fossils and toys. There are also special events, learning activities and new themed exhibitions each season to enjoy.

2023 Exhibitions: Back to the 80s – Frankie Goes to Felixstowe; 1953 Remembered – how Felixstowe survived the East Coast Floods; Coronation! – how Felixstowe celebrated Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation 70 years ago.
