Places to Go on a Rainy Day

Wycombe Museum is a family friendly museum that explores the history of Wycombe District and its surrounding areas through hands-on galleries. In rain or shine we have lots to do to keep your kids busy – become a code breaker or chair detective and hunt the galleries for clues with our activity trails, embrace your inner Roman soldier or Victorian wash maid with the help of our dressing up costumes, pay a visit to our terrifying replica WW1 trench or just settle down with a hot drink and pick a board game to play in our cosy café. And if the sun does come out, we’ve got a big beautiful garden too that’s perfect for exploring! Make sure you check out our events programme on our website or social media for special activities going on during your visit too.’
