For a free museum it’s definitely worth a visit with the highlights being world civilisations and history but other parts left a bit to be desired for us.Would recommend checking out the exhibits and if they interest your group then do go down!

We had read that there was a museum on the history of Oxford located in the town hall. We called in as we were passing and the lady on reception told us that due to renovation work the exhibition is n...
It is very small, just 1 room of fantastically well presented objects. Just pop in a visit it. 30 minutes will suffice. The maps of Oxford city through the years are great.
In temporary room currently awaiting refurbishment, not much to see
I had hoped for some overview of the history of Oxford but there were just a few haphazard cases of artifacts. Hopefully once the refurb is done and the museum is back as it should be it will be bett...
When we went into the museum one of the volunteer ladies was about to leave as it was the end of her shift. As she had already started talking to us she stayed to show us around. She explained the dis...
There is a good overview here of the history of the city, and some interesting artefacts, but it is only really a couple of rooms so didn't take us all that long to get round it. We didn't speak to h...

The open area on the first floor of Oxford City Hall is only a museum and a cafe. The museum covers a small area, but it has a big name and is called the Oxford Museum. The pictures, texts, and actual photos show the history of the development of Oxford city. In a limited corner, there is also a scene of government staff working. At the end of the 15-minute tour of the city hall indoors, the main reason is that the text is unclear and many things are not understood.
The Oxford Museum is very close to the university campus. The appearance is the same as all British buildings. The museum is very large. There are many sections about animal costumes, instruments, musical instruments, religion, etc. I remember it is free. It’s still a bit wasteful to bring back the production from the motherland. There are many animal skeletons. Sheep, giraffe, deer, etc. This museum also has some professional students in it.
The Museum of Oxford is the only museum dedicated to the humanities and history of Oxford. Since the museum opened in 1975, it has attracted the attention of local residents and tourists. They stayed here to explore the story of Oxford and how Oxford developed into the current Oxford city. The Oxford Museum shows the development of Oxford from pre-century to modern times. In 2011, the Oxford Museum was further improved and adjusted to combine the collections of Oxford and the historical and cultural heritage of Oxford. In 2012, the Oxford Gallery was opened in the museum, which also houses the development and history of Oxford for more than 3000 years. Finally, at the souvenir shop, you can also buy meaningful souvenirs and souvenir cards from Oxford.
The Oxford Museum itself is also a historical building. The museum contains a lot of Oxford history and era imprints. This museum includes a lot of things, you can simply understand the history of Oxford and some of the past.
