Parc Howard Museum

Inspiring our next inventors is our mission at Parc Howard Museum. Our brand-new exhibitions showcase some of the greatest ideas and inventions to come out of Llanelli. Many know about the world's first spare wheel - the Stepney - but did you know that the founder of Specsavers was born in the town? It's always been a place of change and innovation. That's not all. We're inviting you to explore, discuss and play together in our Imaginarium gallery, as it's the best way to learn and make sense of the world. Play, imagination and creativity influenced toys, popular culture and even scientific discoveries. Fire your imagination by solving the pyramid puzzle. Or gaze in wonder at the beautiful images of the kaleidoscope. Perhaps even discovering the mystery of Pepper's Ghost! You'll also discover our newly redisplayed Painting Gallery, showcasing some of the finest Welsh artists, plus the Llanelly Pottery Stories Gallery that highlights this icon of the town. There's also a welcoming and accessible visitor reception with a gift shop stuffed full of playful presents and locally-sourced souvenirs. It's also the place to go to find hot drinks, snacks, and ice creams. You can sit outside and enjoy them in our shaded outdoor seating, or take them with you as you wander around the beautiful park.
