Went with a group of 40 people by bus. A spot was arranged so the bus could park , while we had a prearranged tour and look around. Great to see the kiln in good condition. In the museum you realise , its not just about cups etc and the swans.
What a fantastic little museum, I had no idea the richness of the local history and how many different types of crockery they produced.
Always an interesting place to visit as I’m interested in the history of Crown Lynn. Some stunning examples on display. Worth a visit if you’re a Crown Lynn enthusiast.
Very reknowned ceramic factory once upon a time.
Visted April this year - Paid $20 cash and filled out a form to become part of “Friends of Crown Lynn” only to not become a friend of anything… reached out in May, July & October to resolve the issue, only to be told “refunds aren’t given” terrible customer service with a “mailing list” that is clearly a scam. Beware.
Free entry, a bijou museum to the clay and pottery industry from the 1860 to recent times. As well as exhibits video films show the working activities of yesteryear!
Wonderful place to learn the history of Crown Lynn pottery and to see displays of their pottery.
