Oak Chair at Museum'Curator's Corner - New Arrivals at the Museum'

Have you ever wondered what we collect and why?! This display on the first floor of Windsor Library presents the Museum's most recent and interesting acquisitions.

Star items include a beautifully carved oak armchair with a Tudor rose design and the tail wheel of a hurricane - the aircraft orginally designed by Windsor's very own Sydney Camm - which has a very romantic story attached to it!

Children will especially love the toys and adults will no doubt be interested in a number of prints, photographs and illustrations associated with Royal Ascot Racecourse and Sunningdale Golf Course in the south of the Borough.

The Story of Windsor - the impact of successive Kings and Queens on the town across the centuries

This display in the corridor traces the development of Windsor town over the past 1,000 years from the original Saxon settlement of Windlesora in what is now Old Windsor to the present town circling Windsor Castle.
