COVID-19 Update

We’re pleased to announce that we plan to reopen Tudor House Museum and Garden in June. Official opening dates will be dependent on the easing of national lockdown restrictions and any potential local restriction determined by government. At this stage we’ll still be operating at a reduced capacity to ensure everyone’s safety. The Rule of 6 or 2 households will still apply.

Education groups planning visits upon opening can book through museums.education@southampton.gov.uk.

We can’t wait to welcome you back.

Visitor Information

Southampton’s most important historic building, Tudor House reveals over 800 years of history in one fascinating location at the heart of the Old Town. The timber-framed building facing St Michael’s Square was built in the late 15th Century, with King John’s Palace, an adjacent Norman house accessible from Tudor House Garden, dating back a further 300 years. Tudor House gives a unique and atmospheric insight into the lives and times of both its residents through the years, and of Southampton itself. It appeals to visitors of all ages and interests, who find the family-friendly activities, interactive technology and fascinating displays a winning combination.

Our museum is able to operate thanks to the generous efforts of our fantastic volunteers.
