About the Museum

The George Muller Museum is a small museum with a big story to tell – not just George Muller’s story but the lives and experiences of the 17.5 thousand children who lived in the Ashley Down Orphan Homes from early Victorian Bristol until the 1950’s.

Housed in one of the original orphanages, our museum is packed full of history and incredible true stories and it is suitable for all ages.

We have original artefacts and records, interactive displays, family activities and the powerful story of the man who prayed for the resources to care for 10,000 children.  As well as information about the charity he left behind – still faithfully working to support vulnerable children today.  

We are accessible, child-friendly and free!

A great way to spend an hour discovering one of Bristol’s best kept secrets.
