		Situated in the centre of Winchester between the High Street and the Cathedral, the Museum tells the story of the city through display of its extensive archaeological and local history collections.

		The origins of the City's role as a local shopping centre and tourist destination in the 19th century are well demonstrated by displays and reconstructions of Victorian and Edwardian shops on the ground floor of the Museum.
