Always something interesting to see here. The museum changed their exhibits on a regular basis. I really enjoyed the exhibition of art made out of recycled materials.

Well laid out and the ladies were very informative ...Worth an hour of your time ...Opposite the church with the crooked spire also worth a look

First visit. Nice staff. Very interesting place. Although it's free it's good to give a donation. Good for kids too

This is a small but very interesting Museum with a human size hamster wheel saved from St. Mary's (Twisted Tower) Church which was used to lift all the materials up through the tower as it was built. Others displays give you a feel for the history of the town. It's located just behind the church so make sure that you don't miss it if you're in Chesterfield for the day.

Been i the museum quite a few times it is great for local history, some of the artefacts are really interesting, but mainly the staff are exelent, always have time to talk & explain things to you, i recently went in to ask about a road name in chesterfield that i came accross in a book i had just read, i searched the town for this road but could not find it,,,,,, i went to the museum & one of the staff had read the same book & was able to explain to me that the said road did not exist any more & was now Lordsmill St,,, so they can help with most things,,, thank you,,,

It is a very interesting place to visit. Even if is not a big museum you can learn a lot about the history of the Chesterfield. I like it. And another thing: Free entry.

Lovely little museum got whiling away an hour, interesting displays chasing the history of Chesterfield plus an exhibition on coal mining in the area with exhibits which you could touch and explore. There was a winter craft section where you could awaken your inner child and craft away, child not required but bet they would have enjoyed it!

Shows a good view of the history of Chesterfield with some interactive elements too! Very interesting! The only downside was the photography of chesterfield element upstairs, as 4 people working there asked me the same question on separate occasions - I wasn't left to just appreciate the photography (but you don't have to visit that part)

A very interesting, small, local museum with friendly staff. A good place to while away an hour.
