Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales has appointed Glamorgan Brewing Company as the brewery for The Vulcan Hotel when it opens at St Fagans National Museum of History in 2024. 

Amgueddfa Cymru is committed to ensuring that everyone is represented and respect the differing opinions of visitors and staff and the communities we represent. 

Amgueddfa Cymru opposes all acts of violence, and we are deeply saddened and concerned by the tragic loss of lives in Israel and Gaza. We hope that all parties seek a peaceful resolution as soon as possible. 

Unplanned protest activity has taken place at National Museum Cardiff in response to this crisis. Amgueddfa Cymru supports the right for people to protest peacefully but asks that all protests undertaken are respectful and do not put the safety of our visitors, staff, volunteers, and the national collection at risk. 

Four treasure finds, including a Bronze Age hoard, two Roman silver finger-rings and a medieval silver brooch pin were declared treasure on Tuesday 14th November 2023 by Area Coroner for South Wales Central, Patricia Morgan. 

Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales has today announced that it has secured the Investors in People ‘We invest in people, silver award’ – an achievement only around 23% of organisations assessed by Investors in People achieve. The organisation represents the family of seven national museums and a collection centre, with over 800 staff members across Wales.

Cardiff University is teaming up with Amgueddfa Cymru | Museum Wales for the Being Human Festival – a celebration of humanities research.
