Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology

My experience here was pleasant. The museum is quite smaller than I was expecting but there's a nice collection with diverse objects from all over the world. Not surprising, there were ex-colonies in the past. Clean, organized and with a staff very friendly. Definitely a must visit if you're in Cambridge.

The staff here were very kind and helpful and the museum itself great . I came specifically to see Indigo Jones screen from Winchester Cathedral which was fantastic so pleased to have seen this . I love the Cathedral itself and could visualise this in situe.
But there is so much more of interest from all over the world .
The gold Cross and pins found in a Anglo Saxon village burial in Trumpington of a teenage girl was amazingly only found in 2011 . The cross identified her as from an important family and as a Christian convert . They are beautiful and our ancestors such talented craftsmen .
The Haida Totem Pole from British Columbia was gigantic . If I had bumped into this in the dark I would have swam back to the UK in no time .
The pecalang of the Hindu monkey god Hanuman was frightening looking too as it was meant to be I presume as a guardian of a village Temple .
These were just my favourite picks but having said that it's not right to choose really as all the displays were fantastic .
Well worth the time most educational .

Very interesting museum to visit with your little ones.. From Mayan culture to American Indian, Egyptian to Japanese many things can be seen. Children can optionally get a paper with some objects to find in each floor of the museum and they like it so much. Also colouring figures with crayons were nice. Toilets were clean and spacey to go in with your child..

The oldest potatoes that I ever saw. I like the arrangements of antiques based on regions, then based on years. Thanks to staffs, the smiles on their face are shining.

Like a mini Pitt Rivers in Oxford but with less investment and not as child friendly. Toilet facilities are very poor the cleaner has removed the surfaces of the taps to the point they look unhygienic let's hope conservation team a little gentler! The huge kayaks and totem poles are really fascinating and the labelling generally insightful.

An antidote to shopping. A visual feast of culture with the Canadian totem rising over two floors being a highlight. We also enjoyed the colour display which provided a good insight into the scientific and cultural importance of colour all wonderfully curated. Oh, and there’s a shop, selling some very beautiful but reasonably priced craft items.

Great experience to visit there. A well-organized musuem, got to see a wide range of archeological collections, all over the world. A must-visit place when you're in Cambridge, obviously.

A quite small museum, but packs some nice variety of historical displays, and exhibitions. Unique, and interesting museum, plus the entrance is for free to visit, and explore with your families, and friends.
