Herefordshire Museum Service has been safeguarding the cultural heritage of Herefordshire since 1874. The service is going through an exciting period of change as it transitions to being a socially engaged organisation.

Herefordshire Museum Service operates three sites: Hereford Museum and Art Gallery, the Black and White House Museum and the Museum Resource and Learning Centre.
