Huguenot Museum

Heritage Open Day: The Huguenot Museum is the only museum of Huguenot history in the UK. The Huguenots were French Protestants who escaped religious persecution from the 16th century onwards. The Huguenot Museum is delighted to welcome visitors as part of Heritage Open Days. Thanks to our National Lottery Heritage Fund project, The Huguenot Museum – A New Future, we are proud to display the Lethieullier Dolls' House, on loan from the National Trust until October 2026.

This remarkable 18th-century Baby House was given to Sarah Lethieullier (1722–1788), daughter of a Huguenot merchant. Containing over 700 objects, including twelve dolls, it is being displayed away from the family home for the first time in over 250 years.
