What a fantastic community resource, commemorating for posterity the cultural diversity and important history of the Borough of Hackney. This is a free museum, the staff working there are very friendly, and exhibits very interesting. Please take the time to come by and support their hard work!

Free entry museum with tons of history & information about Hackney. A lovely staff greeted me when I entered, and she told me there is an photography exhibition going on, the exhibition tell us stories about Hackney from 1970 till modern day by using different photography. Besides that, toilet is very clean too!

We were used to come a lot last year, 'cause there were so many toys for children but now they're almost all gone , such a shame since it was the perfect place to come on a rainy afternoon, my kid and his friends absolutely loved it

We visited here for a school trip. It's a great experience to see and learn some history.The leading staff facilitator for our group was a wonderful, knowledgeable young lady. It's a great place to visit for adults as well.

Hackney Museum is a small museum in the Hackney area of London focusing on local history of the area. Considering the history of Hackney, a lot of the exhibits focus on the influx of people over the centuries and decades. The story starts with the Roman period, but the story rapidly shifts to the last 200 hundred years with a particular focus on immigrants and by extension the poorer members of society.There's also a small exhibition room which is currently dedicated to black" music. Truly amazing to see some old school equipment. A real gem of a museum."
