Full description

The Camera Museum displays a well-preserved collection of photographic and filming equipment dating from about 1900 to 2000. Reviewers praise how well it is organised and how helpful the staff are, and one describes it as a hidden gem that deserves more visitors.

Entrance was reported as inexpensive. The visit takes around 45 minutes with little walking, which suits photography and film enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys vintage technology.

It is quiet and focused rather than flashy, and closed on Mondays.
