Haslemere Educational Museum

Haslemere / United Kingdom

Haslemere Educational Museum was founded in 1888 by the eminent surgeon Sir Jonathan Hutchinson to display his growing collection of natural history specimens. After two moves it found in 1926 a permanent home in Haslemere High Street, in the town of Haslemere, Surrey, England. The museum won a national award in 2012 and is an independent charity. It contains nearly half a million specimens, artefacts, papers and images.
