Dales Countryside Museum shares the stories of the people and places of the Yorkshire Dales. It's a great place to start your visit to the Dales and can help you to understand and enjoy the various things you see as you travel through the area. You can find out what it was like to be a lead miner, discover the importance of the knitting industry, find out about the crafts and trades that would once have been a feature of every village. Climb aboard the train carriages and get crafty in our Creation Station. See beautifully crafted objects like our exquisite Bronze spearhead and gold Viking ring. Enjoy the temporary exhibitions that change throughout the year. We have an annual events programme including Fun Fridays for families, craft workshops for you to have fun and learn a new skill and demo days that bring objects to life. Follow the outdoor trail and do a bit of animal and bug spotting too! Refuel, recharge and relax at the Firebox Café and make the most of your visit to Hawes.
