Due to time constraints we only visited the Collection, which is basically archeological artefacts found around the city. The I-guide was very useful and informative, although I did wonder sometimes if I had been given the children's version, due to the tone of some of the pieces. Very interesting to see a timeline of a city in terms of every... More

The art gallery contains a broad range of artwork, so there is something to please every taste. The museum contains many artefacts from Lincoln and Lincolnshire, and provides a very interesting summary of the long history of the region to compliment these exhibits. As Lincoln was an important centre this helps gain a better understand of the history of England.... More

We hadn't planned on seeing the gallery, but on our route down from visiting other attractions at the top of the hill, decided to have a look as it is free to visit. Really well laid out with helpful information and some interactive bits, the archaeology section was more interesting to us. Interesting artefacts too.

Both the Usher and The Collection are worth a visit. Interesting museum section, terrific art gallery with regular changing exhibitions and national touring events. The lectures and films in the lecture theatre are always interesting and varied.

There are several eye-catching items for a quick visit and much to dwell on if you have time to spare. The staff are helpful and point you towards the key exhibits.

A museum of local life told through archeology, fascinating detail, intelligent displays, and it is free. The cafe is an excellent place to 'rest' and have a drink and snack whilst reading the newspaper.

I went specifically to view the 18th Century Frocks and Finery exhibition but was also delighted to discover other artifacts like the Fiskerton long boat were also on display. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit and fact it was free was a bonus. Well done Lincolnshire County Council

We went on a wet cold day during the school half term, two adults one five year old one two year old. It was interesting, friendly, and a good environment for all. And yes the fact that it is free makes it even better, in this day of age it is so hard to keep control of cost when children... More

We traveled from Derbyshire to Lincoln especially for 'The World is Almost 6,000 Years Old' exhibition. I wouldn't recommend anyone else to do this, unless you've got other good reasons to go to Lincoln. From our visit to The Collection and Usher Gallery, we can only describe the curation as displaying a spectacular lack of customer awareness. It was so... More
