See the new animation about the Amersham martyrs, made as part of the Citizens 800 project.

This video, produced with Royal Holloway University, explores the story of the Amersham Martyrs, persecuted for their religious beliefs and wish to read the Bible in English during the reign of Henry VIII. This was made with the support of the Heritage Lottery Fund. http://youtu.be/JZTXGoxC27o

“Enjoyed our visit to this wonderful interactive museum where you are positively encouraged to touch things!”

“Visited Amersham museum yesterday – lovely place, provides many details on the history of the place. Plenty of cute cafes, pubs and shops around also… not difficult to find free parking nearby. ”

“A well-run, informative and interesting small museum on the main street. It’s mostly volunteer-run and they do a great job in keeping it and making you feel welcome…Check out the herb garden too.”

“Enjoyable film and television location guided walk around Amersham hosted by Amersham Museum – here are the Sun Houses on Highover Park and further up the hill is High & Over.”
