About the museum
The Museum of Bath Architecture (MoBA) explores the rich architectural history of Bath, from its medieval beginnings, through the heights of Georgian Palladianism, and onto its continued development today.
A Bath Preservation Trust museum
Museum under development
As scheduled, the museum is now closed until further notice while we undertake some essential maintenance and repairs to the building, review consultation feedback and work on plans for the long-term sustainability of the building and collection.
While we are closed we do have some wonderful monthly events for you to attend, and we can also cater for group tours by arrangement.
We would like to thank members of the community and visitors who took the time to share their thoughts and ideas for the museum’s future, either in person or here at the museum.
Events, talks and activities: check out what we’ve got coming up at MoBA.

The museum is currently closed for repairs, however when we reopen we will welcome schools and community groups to MoBA, where adults and children alike can discover the fascinating world of architecture and design.
School visits, outreach sessions and private group activities can all be arranged in advance.
