No.1 Royal Crescent
No. 1 Royal Crescent is a magnificently restored townhouse museum where you can experience the fashionable life in Georgian Bath of the 18th century. It has been decorated and furnished just as it might have been during the period 1776-1796.
The rooms feature historic furniture, pictures and objects that reveal what life was like for Bath’s fashionable residents – both upstairs and downstairs. The new immersive experience brings the house to life through film and sound so that visitors can get a very real sense of what it would have been like to live there.
The Herschel Museum of Astronomy
The Herschel Museum of Astronomy is dedicated to the achievements of the Herschels: distinguished astronomers and talented musicians. It was from this house that William discovered the planet Uranus in 1781, using a telescope of his own design. His observations helped to double the known size of the solar system. Following a tradition of the great astronomers of the Renaissance he pushed forward the science of building telescopes. He was rewarded for his work by King George III.
