Westgate Museum
With a National Art Pass you get
A debtors’ prison for 150 years, now a beautifully refurbished listed monument, Westgate Museum is set in the last of the main medieval gates into Winchester.
Located at the top of the High Street in the historic city of Winchester, the museum is housed in a surviving fortified medieval city gateway, and tells the story of this remarkable building, as well as the history of Tudor and Stuart Winchester. Pose for a photograph in a replica coat of armour and Tudor costumes, make a brass rubbing to take away and have a go at the Westgate spotter trail.
