Kent's History is varied and rich. Everything is here to explore, from the pre-historic right up to the tumultuous times of the 20th century. The Kent coast enjoys a fantastic heritage and the richest font of Kent History is the Isle of Thanet which is said by some to be The Birthplace of England.
Crampton Tower Museum, situated in Thanet, celebrates local history with its collection of early prints and paintings. However, as Broadstairs is only a part of our glorious isle, the whole of Thanet is embraced by our team of historians.
Apart from a varied collection of historical artefacts, the Museum is an effective link to other collections, history walkers and nearby sites of interest.
