Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery

PLEASE NOTE THE MUSEUM WILL BE CLOSED FOR REFURBISHMENT FROM 25-29 MARCH 2013 AND RE-OPEN ON SATURDAY 30 MARCH
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery was opened in 1964 as a purpose-built Museum to display important collections of natural history, archaeology, local history, fine and decorative art. There is also a large and varied temporary exhibition programme throughout the year, as well as special activities for all ages.

The Museum shop stocks a range of gifts including postcards, souvenirs, framed prints, King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry material and books. Museum staff also offer an Enquiry Service to the public - objects can be brought in for identification but no valuations can be given.

There is full access to the museum for the disabled, and inside there is a lift providing access to the upper galleries. Free car park for visitors with reserved disabled parking.

The Regimental Museum of the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry

Situated in the same building as Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery, in its own ground floor extension, The Regimental Museum of the King's Own Yorkshire Light Infantry reflects the history of this famous local Regiment.  On display is one of the most extensive medal collections exhibited in any museum in this country.  Tours and talks can be arranged for groups during normal museum opening times.
