Denny Abbey & The Farmland Museum

The Museum of Cambridge Life.

Discover the real story of Cambridge and its people through this fascinating Museum of Cambridge life. Housed in a 17th century timber framed building which was formerly an inn, this family friendly Museum displays a wealth of Cambridge tradition and history. Explore the nine room settings such as the Bar, the Guest Room and the Childhood Room. Find out how you would tackle the laundry without the aid of a washing machine or keep witches at bay with the use of a few ‘magical’ items!

The Museum hosts a number of temporary exhibitions and events throughout the year and offers regular family and children’s activities and trails.
