Eyam Museum, fully refurbished in 1997, features three interconnecting display areas, which relate village history. Exhibits include pre-history of area human life; the settlement's Roman roots; the nature, history and movement of Bubonic Plague, especially in Eyam; some popular 'quack' remedies used to fight the plague; new industries that later nurtured the village; and the geological significance of the area. The museum was inspired by a collection created by the late Clarence Daniel, a lifelong Eyam resident and descendant of one of the 76 families afflicted by the plague. Open Tuesday-Sunday and bank holiday Mondays; closed November-March, except for booked groups. Tel: 01433 631371 (Fax and telephone out of hours - 01433 630777)
