St Agnes Museum

About

An award-winning volunteer-run Museum comprising information, artefacts and curios relating to the Parish of St. Agnes. St. Agnes is a beautiful coastal village with a rich history of tin and copper mining as well as fishing, although today its main trade is tourism. A visit to the museum will enhance your understanding of this special history and can be complemented with one of many walks taking in the historic mine engine house remains or lunch in one of the many restaurants, cafes or pubs. The Museum was established in 1984 and moved to its current location in the old Chapel of Rest in 1990.
