Lynn Museum

Lynn Museum tells the story of King’s Lynn and West Norfolk. Its centrepiece is Seahenge, the internationally important Bronze Age timber circle discovered on the Norfolk coast, alongside galleries covering local archaeology, industry and everyday life.

The museum’s Seahenge gallery centres on a Bronze Age timber circle discovered on the North Norfolk coast, giving the region’s prehistoric story a vivid physical presence. Other displays explore social, maritime and industrial life in Lynn and West Norfolk. The mix is particularly useful for understanding a town shaped by land and sea, from ancient coastal communities to later trade and work. It is an engaging introduction before walking the streets and waterfront of King’s Lynn.
