Housed in a beautiful 17th Century former coaching inn, Broadway Museum & Art Gallery opened in 2013. The building, now called Tudor House, has been extended and adapted over time, but still retains many original features as well as displaying architectural flourishes which reflect the trends of passing eras.
In the mid 19th Century, when people started to travel by train rather than stagecoach, the inn closed, and Tudor House became a farmstead and then a private residence. Afterwards, for 80 years from the 1930s to the early 2000s, it served as the headquarters of H. W. Keil Ltd, a well-known and highly esteemed dealer in antique furniture.

Fantastic museum located in a beautiful honey coloured Cotswold stone building. The museum explores the long history of Broadway and the artistic community that took up residence in the 19th century. We loved the museum and only £5 to gain entry. If you are visiting Broadway it is a good place for your first stop so you get background information on this lovely village.

The temporary and permanent exhibits were excellent! I was lucky to see the Art of WW II presented by James Noott. It offered new perspectives about life in war time Britain in a much written about era. The microscopic sculptures by Willard Wigan are just plain novel! It was a fun place to be on a rainy spring day - or any day!
