Bath: The Holburne Museum Entry Ticket

About this tour

Visit the Holburne Museum, also known as ‘Lady Danbury’s house’ in Netflix’s popular Bridgerton, and explore its collection of 16th and 17th century Italian and Dutch paintings, silver, sculpture, furniture, porcelain, and diverse objets d’art of national and international significance.

Founded in 1882 with the gift of Sir William Holburne’s collection, the museum has been added to over the years with a collection of 18th-century paintings by such artists as Gainsborough, Lawrence, Ramsay, Stubbs, and Zoffany.

Set within the historic Sydney Pleasure Gardens, the museum added an ambitious contemporary glass extension in 2011 and has since secured a national reputation as an outstanding museum which holds critically acclaimed exhibitions, bringing great art of all periods and from around the world to Bath.

The Holburne seeks to set the art of the past in dialogue with contemporary practice in exciting and dynamic new ways. Exhibitions in recent years have included ceramics by Grayson Perry and drawings by David Hockney, as well as blockbuster shows of Tudor art and Renaissance marriage portraits.
