About
The Museum tells the story of the famous Crimean war nurse
Florence Nightingale is famous around the world for her influence on modern nursing, but she herself was more than just a nurse. The Florence Nightingale Museum, on the site of the first nurse training school, takes you on a trip through the life of a remarkable Victorian woman. See for yourself how her work in the Crimea was truly only a fraction of her achievement. Personal artefacts, a life-size reconstruction of a Crimean ward scene and a twenty minute audio-visual presentation join together to reveal the hidden person, from a serious and solitary child to an internationally recognised figure.
The Museum has recently introduced complimentary guided tours in the afternoons to give visitors a closer look at the Museum collection.
We provide an excellent educational service for school groups, with worksheets available for key stages 1 and 2, and GCSE History of medicine through time students. Hands-on activities are also available. Our shop stocks a wide variety of teaching resources, pocket-money souvenirs and gifts.
