Amgueddfa Cymru Statement: Temporary closure of National Museum Cardiff - Update
Date:
2025-02-03On Sunday 2 February, Amgueddfa Cymru had to make the decision to temporarily close National Museum Cardiff to the public for a short period in order to undertake immediate maintenance work.
This was due to a mechanical issue caused by a component failure in an isolated area of the building. Our teams are working diligently to resolve the issue quickly and effectively, while also ensuring minimal disruption to our visitors.
We are working closely with specialists to assess the situation and make the necessary repairs. The safety and well-being of our visitors, volunteers, staff, and the preservation of our collections will always remain our top priority, which is why we are taking all appropriate measures to temporarily close the museum.
We will continue to assess the situation and provide updates on our progress but are hopeful that these issues will be addressed over the next few days.
We sincerely appreciate the understanding and support of our visitors and look forward to welcoming you back soon.
