Join the first Museum Trustee fundraising event - Murder! at the Museum.

Get ready for an exciting adventure! In the late 1080s, a minor Norman landowner mysteriously vanished near Waltham Abbey, and now his body has been discovered in the garden of the Museum! 

But guess what? He wasn’t exactly well-liked, which means there are plenty of suspects to consider! 

Put on your detective hat and get ready to embark on a thrilling investigation! As guests wander through the Museum, they’ll encounter scattered "evidence" that will help unravel the mystery. Each clue brings you closer to discovering the truth and narrowing down the list of suspects. 

With a bit of sleuthing, creative thinking, and perhaps a few surprises along the way, it’s up to you to crack the case and uncover who the real murderer is! Will you be the one to solve the mystery before time runs out? Let the fun begin!

Includes refreshments.
