Panacea Museum re-opens

The Panacea Museum re-opened on Thursday 20th May 2021, with plenty of extra safety measures in place to protect both visitors and staff. Visitors have the opportunity to discover the fascinating story of Octavia and the Panacea Society, a religious community formed in the early 20th Century. The Society’s name became familiar to many people beyond Bedford through their national advertising campaign to open Joanna Southcott’s sealed box of prophecies. The Museum incorporates beautiful Victorian architecture, interiors and carefully-tended gardens. COVID-19 Safety Precautions The majority of the Museum is open to the public, with a one-way system in place which includes access to the Gardens. Visitors are welcome to bring a picnic and sit in the Garden.​ All visitors to the museum are required to wear a mask, and hand sanitising stations are at each entrance and exit. The staff and volunteers at the Museum look forward to welcoming you back! 20th May- 24th October | Thursday – Sunday, 11.00 - 5.00 More information can be found here: panaceamuseum.org/visiting/visitor-information
