We went with my wife's parents. I have been to the old Chichester museum many times although the others hadn'y. I expected an interesting mix of finds and a good introduction to the unique history of Chichester. The museum has a few stones in situ from what is said to be the baths - although with a lot of later... More

Building is a great backdrop for the museum exhibitions. Open archaeological site on display is a great concept. First floor has huge cube shaped display case - unique method of displaying objects - very impressive and good visual impact. Rooftop view of the cathedral. Top floor is stuffed full of artefacts - could spend hours there. Themes of bravery, joy... More

Our American friend loved it but we feel the shop could stock more interesting items. Would definitely take overseas visitors there again.

I was a little surprised when I found out that a local museum for a small provincial city was charging a £7 entry fee, but it made me think that perhaps there was something special about The Novium.

Had looked forward to visiting the museum. However the whole experience was poor and definitely not good value for £7/adult for a visit after reading every artefact took about 30 minutes. Yes the ground floor is informative and you can easily imagine how a Roman Baths may have looked. The rest of the museum has clearly been laid out with... More

We spent £14 for 2 adults to see this museum. It was my birthday and had wanted to look inside for a while. The ground floor is Roman baths but akin to a building site. The first floor is a huge emotionless room with a large square display case in the middle full of odd bits and pieces. Up the... More
