Brief description
"The Novium Museum is Chichester's free entry local history museum. Located on Tower Street in the centre of Chichester, The Novium was purpose built to show the remains of a Roman bath house. Set over 3 floors, our exhibitions tell the story of Chichester District over the past 500,000 years. From our Roman Gallery on our ground floor up to our award-winning Tim Peake exhibition on our second floor.
Chichester Tourist Information Centre is based within the Novium Museum, and our qualified Front of House staff are happy to answer your queries and can offer visitors and local residents accomodation bookings, ticket sales, information on the local area as well as a cafe service."
