On the second floor was a display of various items used in witchcraft and magic such as a labyrinth stone, voodoo dolls, crystals, palmistry and tarot readings. Entrance was was reasonable. There was no parking area but you can park not too far away. They open at 10am and with last entry at 4:30. It's not really accessible in a wheelchair though there is a small stairlift.

I think your impression of this place will depend upon your point of view. The museum holds a…read morecollection of artifacts that people with no real knowledge about witches would find interesting. It has some information about witch trials, curses, old wives tales, herbal healing, and things like that. I really had no idea what I might find, but I heard so many intriguing things that I had to check it out. It's good that a place like this exists, but I think it just scratches the surface and appeals to the curious drive bys rather than people who are into witchcraft and magic. That said, they have an altar there that has some really great energy in it. Check that out if you are in the area.

General exhibition rather disjointed. History of the Pirates Exhibition: DISSAPOINTING: superficial, without much educational value. Would have been more interesting looking up the subject on Wikipedia etc. Privateers such as Walter Rayleigh, Francis Drake should have been mentioned! That is a big part of British History! Instead a big section about LGBT+ pirates ("Queer Pirates")... really? To put the icing on the cake (not literally) the the kitchen staff (rude plump older woman) in the food and drink area jumped in my face when I dared to ask a question about missing drink (politely!).

The National Maritime Museum Cornwall in Falmouth is a major attraction, but at UKP 13.50 it is…read morealso relatively expensive, maybe too expensive. Yes, the ticket allows you to re-visit the museum free of charge within the next 12 months., but how many people will actually take advantage of this? Very few, I presume. The museum itself is quite impressive, especially its spectacular, huge main hall (see photos) with a variety of boats, some of them famous, most of which are suspended from the floor. There is both printed and screen-terminal information on the history and type of the boats, so from an educational angle this is truly well done. "15 galleries" the museum promises, but try as I might my count is substantially lower. This might be because at the time of my visit, several rooms were occupied by a major temporary exhibition, "Titanic Stories". That display has attracted significant publicity - and because of its subject - will no doubt also attract a significant number of visitors. Personally, I found it rather to be a collection of book pages presented as display panels, as there is a lot more to read than to see. The only substantial object *from* the Titanic is one of its lifeboats - and it is a replica! The remaining objects are a motley assortment of minor pieces either from the Titanic or the Carpathia, but most of the exhibition is concerned with the "myth" the Titanic story created and how it found its way into books, movies and even board games. Frankly, I found the collection well presented but underwhelming. As for the rest of the galleries, there is e.g. a "Cornwall Gallery" which details the nautical history of the region, and another one specifically on Falmouth history. Illuminating, certainly, but nothing to occupy one for very long. From the top floor you have an impressive view over Falmouth harbour and parts of the town, and there's a large café for visitors which I did not visit (the area offers plenty of solid restaurants right next to the museum). The small fry get an opportunity to play with toy boats in the museum's indoor pool - another family-friendly feature. The presentation itself is certainly convincing. Content-wise, I was hoping for more.
