Once a key part of Durham's cloth-making industry, the Old Fulling Mill is now home to Durham University's Museum of Archaeology.

The collections on display provide a fascinating insight into the rich heritage of the North East of England, as well as showcasing items from across Europe.  Highlights include outstanding Roman collections together with Anglo-Saxon, Medieval and Tudor finds from Durham city and the local area. 

In addition to our permanent displays the Old Fulling Mill hosts regularly changing temporary exhibitions and a lively programme of family activities at weekends and during school holidays.  Use the links on the left to find out more!
