National Museum of Montserrat

A great history lesson for the island and entire Caribbean covering prehistory up until modern times. The museum itself is well laid out and easy to navigate. The exhibits were done very well with QR codes for each item if you wish to learn more. I am only sorry it took us so long to make our way here but will check back each future visit to see new exhibits.

Informative museum on the history of Montserrat, with some great photos of life before and after the volcano eruption. Especially loved the music history, so many great names have recorded in Montserrat. The drums from Terry Williams (Dire Straits) are displayed in the museum as well!

Small but excellent museum tucked away at Little Bay. Currently (early 2026) running Amerindian exhibit showing migrations across the Caribbean. Worth a visit.

Informative displays with quite a few objects. The Amerindian exhibition was good, as was the one from modern days and the island before and after the 1997 volcanic eruption. What I missed was a display outlining the information around the European occupation of the island. From the first sighting in 1493 until the 21st century. But - I was told it is being planned! Worth a visit. I especially liked the photos from Plymouth before it was buried. Would have loved to visit there..

Really great museum with interesting exhibits about Montserrat's history and culture. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable.

Lovely to see the history of montserrat in one place, I am still very surprised 😮, I won't share all the photos but I'll give a glimpse

I visited the museum with my husband on our second trip to this beautiful island. We were shown around by Vernaire and Jaedon, who were both very knowledgeable and passionate about Montserrat history and the current exhibition ‘Take the shackles off my feet so I can dance’. We spent 1.5 hours at the museum and really enjoyed learning about Montserrat’s history and culture. Would highly recommend a visit to this museum.
