The Cambridge Folk Museum is often overlooked as it stands on the corner of
Northhampton Street and Castle Hill.. It is in an 17th century building which used to be an inn for 300 years.

attended a talk here and I was able to walk around and take a look. It is a bit out of the way for the
main tourist track. Its a small and cosy museum depicting what life was
like in Cambridge. It is very child friendly and they have events for
the children. If you are sick of packed attractions but still want a bit
of history, this might just be what you are looking for. They hold
other events and exhibitions so check up repeatedly so that you won’t
miss a thing! This is a hidden gem.
