Visit to the Museum of Eton Life, Eton College Library and College Archives
For those interested in Berkshire's rich history
A rare opportunity to visit some of the treasures of Eton College. The Museum of Eton Life brings to life the experience of learning, playing and living at Eton College across six centuries. The museum sets the history and traditions of Eton alongside stories of daily life of students, staff and visitors. The College Library holds articles dating from the 9th to 21st centuries. These include, in addition to rare books and manuscripts, prints and printed ephemera, personal and literary archives, drawings and artefacts. The College Archives has a rich and varied collection of records and photographs relating to its own history as well as areas of special interest including travel writing, theatrical history and World War One.
Please note there are stairs up to the library.
