Are you a Jane Austen fan. You know there are museums for other great writers near by the Austen house? Lizzie can drive you over. mainlymuseums.com/post/990/a-b... #museums #museumfromhome #janeausten

I’m not sure what ‘Fizzing’ is but Hamish can tell you and show our train lovers some cool stuff too. mainlymuseums.com/post/1045/th... #Museums #museumfromhome #trains

I do really like my historic ships. Here’s a great one and quite an unusual background. Have a read here for the history behind M33. mainlymuseums.com/post/1162/hm... #museums #museumfromhome #gallipoli #maritime

I know we have lots of Automobile fans out there and this one is especially for you. But there’s just so much more to Beaulieu and Richard can show us it all. mainlymuseums.com/post/1327/be... #museums #museumfromhome #automobile

Neil (and his dog) will wander with you around this early landing spot for Romans in Britain. mainlymuseums.com/post/1154/ri... #museums #museumfromhome #Romans

Ah - two of my favourite things; maritime topics and kids in museums. We all know that so many of us developed a life long love of museums from that first childhood visit. Look at that smile. mainlymuseums.com/post/1326/ab... #museums #museumfromhome #maritime #Aberdeen

This building has been the home of shipbuilding since the 13th century. Antoni can tell you so much more. mainlymuseums.com/post/1157/mu... #museums #barcelona #museumfromhome #maritime

It may be on the loneliest road in America but this museum is pretty cool - just ask Lauren. mainlymuseums.com/post/1123/ch... #museums #museumfromhome #nevada

Bridget headed off to London to see some Impressionist Art pieces. Why not join her on the trip and see what all she discovered. mainlymuseums.com/post/1325/a-... #museums #museumfromhome

Now this is my kind of historic house - built as a fort, used as a home and turned into a tavern. Abigail finds the best spots. mainlymuseums.com/post/1322/hi... #museums #museumfromhome #newengland

Fancy a hike up the U.S. east coast? Read about the museum Laura has visited. mainlymuseums.com/post/1129/ap... #museums #museumfromhome #Appalachian

It’s complicated when a museum changes its approach to the artifacts it displays. Madalyn talks us through one instance. mainlymuseums.com/post/1115/mu... #museum #museumfromhome #turin

Sometimes you unexpectedly run across a little gem of a museum. Just like Helen did here in Scotland. mainlymuseums.com/post/1105/br... #museum #museumfromhome #Highlands

Come on now you know we all love a dinosaur. And Devra delivers. mainlymuseums.com/post/1080/ca... #museums #museumfromhome #dinosaurs

Did you have cabbage Patch Kid? The question is how did this phenomenon captive so many hearts? Wander along with Robin. mainlymuseums.com/post/1324/re... #museums #museumfromhome #cabbagepatch

A lot to discover here - with a bonus for our railway lovers. mainlymuseums.com/post/927/fer... #museums #museumfromhome #NewZealand

Ah - you all know I’m a marine buff. Here’s an interesting article from Oliver about a navy near Vienna. mainlymuseums.com/post/1111/au... #museums #museumfromhome #Austria

Our first from this part of the world. Thanks Bethany - great photos. mainlymuseums.com/post/1323/na... #museums #museumfromhome #signapore

Want to see how Shirley Temple or Belle Watling got chauffeured about….here you go. mainlymuseums.com/post/417/nor... #museums #museumfromhome #Raymond

Annelies takes us to a museum with a focus on people as much as objects. A good read. mainlymuseums.com/post/363/mus... #museums #museumfromhome #belgium

This house has gone through a few changes. Mind you, it was built in 1490 so fair enough. Henry can tell you more. mainlymuseums.com/post/646/anc... #museums #museumfromhome #thetford

Not often you see a Spitfire and an Elephant in the same display. Follow Jordan and find both. mainlymuseums.com/post/737/the... #museums #museumsfromhome #Glasgow

Some paintings are so perfect you feel like you can walk right into the scene. Just ask Helen. mainlymuseums.com/post/852/yor... @Coffee23Helen #museums #museumfromhome #yorkshire

Dinosaurs, monsters and wild animals… exactly what it takes to get the kiddies to love museums. mainlymuseums.com/post/924/pai... #museums #museumfromhome #Paisley

Taking your children to visit museums with you is great. It’s always a treat to see things through new eyes. mainlymuseums.com/post/1321/wi... @wreckmasterjay.bsky.social #museums #museumfromhome #STEM

A little bit of Dali in New Brunswick. Surprise! mainlymuseums.com/post/960/a-m... #museums

A delightful tour from Venetia but it also includes the story of a missing statue…out there somewhere. mainlymuseums.com/post/1316/ed...

Chantelle will walk us through the Paris Catacombs and tell us their story. mainlymuseums.com/post/953/par...

Maria says you can take a quiet boat ride along the Thames to visit this spot. mainlymuseums.com/post/1103/ke...

Now this one is a personal favourite and I try to stop by every time I visit London. Thanks Anne for the reminders of past trips. mainlymuseums.com/post/917/sir...

The museum itself makes for a great visit. But there are so many other local historic sites Grant needed a car to catch them all. mainlymuseums.com/post/1318/na...

If the weather cooperates you can visit the outdoor sculpture garden with Bethany. Or stay inside the large, inviting museum and enjoy the new Ocean exhibit. mainlymuseums.com/post/1319/lo...

Why not join Nina on a tour of “her” museum - I know it will be a delight. mainlymuseums.com/post/727/lan... #museum

This is a huge museum in a former factory (making boxes for Nabisco cereal)…see what’s there now. mainlymuseums.com/post/904/dia-b… #museums #museumfromhome #Beacon

The scale of this site is just staggering. Let’s have Vlad provide some background as we take the tour. mainlymuseums.com/post/1065/slan… #museums #museumfromhome #Romania
