Please contact the curator for details of the current exhibits at Mevagissey Museum. Our Museum, the nations foremost museum of cycling history is housed in an old Victorian Railway Station - A history of cycling from 1818. Some animals have nowhere left to live in the wild - we provide a sanctuary for them. The museum has a permanent display of the history of Cornwall from the Stone Age to the present day, as well as the natural history of Cornwall, a world famous collection of minerals, a pre-eminent collection of ceramics. Sir Richard Edgcumbe of Cotehele built a new home in his deer park at Mount Edgcumbe in 1547-53.
