ROMANS – ARE WE THERE YET!

DISCOVER WHAT THE ROMANS DID FOR CUMBRIA.

Come and discover what the Romans did for Cumbria – who were they and what did they leave behind for us, in our family friendly, interactive exhibition. 

Create a mosaic, hear Roman tales at the Roundhouse, dress the part, or complete a Roman-themed trail that explores the museum.

During the May half term and summer holidays, we will host a range of extra activities for families – check our ‘What’s On’ page for more details. 

Entry to the Roman exhibition is included in the general entry ticket price for The Beacon Museum.
