CCBC Museum Collections

We have more than 1,000 objects in the Culture Service’s museum collection.

These include paintings, archaeological finds, and pieces of social history, which tell the story of day-to-day life in Conwy County through the years. Some collections are on display at Conwy Culture Centre and Colwyn Bay Library.
