The Seaside Museum Herne Bay
From WhereToday
The Seaside Museum Herne Bay is a local museum in Herne Bay, Kent, England. It was established in 1932, and is notable for being a seaside tourist attraction featuring local archaeological and social history, for featuring the history of the town as a tourist resort, for its local art exhibitions and for its World War II bouncing bomb. The management of the Museum was awarded by Canterbury City Council to the Herne Bay Museum Trust, who reopened it in July 2015, as The Seaside Museum Herne Bay.
