Yorkshire Museum and Gardens, Museum Gardens, York, YO1 7FR
Questions that you will not get answers to from The Yorkshire Philosophical Society include:
Why is Yorkshire Pudding a pudding?
If you put a Yorkshire Tea bag in a sealed tin box is it really there?
Who designed and built the A64 and why are they not in prison?
A question they can answer (and the answer would be - it was us!) is…… Who originally set up the Yorkshire Museum in the 1830’s as a place that people could come and learn about biology, geology, archaeology, numismatics and astronomy?
The museum is a bit like if you took some of the Science Museum stuff and some things from the Natural History museum then added some Yorkshire stuff and squished it all together. My kids favourites are the dinosaurs and the monsters of the deep exhibition.
It also has a fab Museum garden thats a great place for a picnic overlooking the river and the abby ruins.
Local Knowledge
The garden ruins are stunning at sunset or twilight for a nice end of the day (or start of the night) drinkie
Squirrels! - if you like em there are loads in the garden
If you are lucky and its a sunny day you can get an ice cream from the ice cream boat on the river in front of the gardens
If you pay to get into the Yorkshire Museum your ticket is good for one year
