The Museum of Richmond in Richmond, London is located in Richmond's Old Town Hall,[1] close to Richmond Bridge. It was formally opened by Queen Elizabeth II[2] on 28 October 1988.[3]

An independent museum and a registered charity,[4] the museum, which is supported by Richmond upon Thames Borough Council, was created in 1983 by local residents[5] led by local historian John Cloake (who was the museum's first Chairman).[6][7][8][9] Its first permanent curator (from 1989 to 2003) was Simon Lace.[10]

The museum's displays, from mediaeval times to the present day, relate to the history of Richmond, Ham, Petersham and Kew which, until local government boundary changes in 1965, formed the Municipal Borough of Richmond (Surrey). Its rotating exhibitions,[11] education activities and a programme of events (including events for families and children)[12][13] cover the whole of the modern borough.

The museum's highlights include: 16th-century glass from Richmond Palace; a model of Richmond Palace;[14] and a painting, The Terrace and View from Richmond Hill, Surrey by Dutch draughtsman and painter Leonard Knyff (1650–1722), which is part of the Richmond upon Thames Borough Art Collection.[15]

The museum publishes a quarterly newsletter.
