Cirencester was Roman Britain second largest city and at Corinium Museum you can experience life as a Roman; marvel at the stunning mosaics, enjoy the sights and smells of a Roman garden, dress as a Roman soldier and explore their engineering and artistry. Also trace a path from Iron Age to the English Civil War. A story of war, of wool, of royalty; of dissolved monasteries and a local worthy's rise from rags to riches.
