Truly one of the best museums I've visited so far. Admission is free of charge though you get to see such a huge number of breathtaking things out there! Highly recommended!

So much to see in this absolutely beautiful museum , lots of historical artefacts . Must visit if you're in Oxford.

Nigel Goring

Extremely good anthropological collection on 3 floors that are not to big. TIP: lighting is subdued. A light source (phone light) is useful to view items that have extremely fine detail or colour.

Justin

A personal favourite! Fascinating, bizarre & totally unique! Artefacts , ranging from shrunken heads to amulets & charms, are displayed beautifully. Not to be missed

Absolutely go and see this great anthropological exhibition ! Also, bring a lot of time so you can get really lost in the many displays.

Megan McNish

This museum , from a historians perspective is quite problematic, but it is also a fascinating place because of that, definitely worth a visit

Steve Graham

Make this your first visit every time you come to Oxford. Outstanding.

A huge collection of objects from all over the world

Chris Phillips

Just like museums used to be. Don't miss the shrunken heads !

Pedro Henrique Moschetta

Too many things, but there is a nice collection of things people used to take showers , brush their teeth, cut their hairs, etc in the balcony .

Gary Farr

Oh, and don't forget that many of the draws under the exhibits hold more artefacts and things

Norbert Guasch

If Indiana Jones had a museum , this would be it.

Martita Pinilla

Tons of stuff from all parts of the globe

Gary Farr

Leave double the time you imagine for this place. It's crammed full of intriguing stuff.

A bit disappointing. I was looking forward to knowing a bit more about Oxford but the 'museum' consists only of one room with some memorabilia and an interactive panel. - Andrea
