George Müller cared for 10,000 orphaned children in Bristol during the Victorian era. He was a man of great faith, never making appeals for money, but simply praying to God for all that was needed. During his lifetime he received £1,500,000 in money and gifts in kind. At present day prices, this would be over £100m.
In line with government guidance, the Museum is currently closed to visits. However we are OPEN for online lessons, delivered via video conferencing software to your classroom. Lessons last about an hour and include a presentation of the story of George Müller and his 10,000 orphans, a taste of orphan life and some activities. Please get in touch to find out more: liz.ogborne@mullers.org
We welcome pupils from all Key Stages and Post-16 at our new, interactive museum. Our workshops are free of charge and cover elements of the RE and History curricula. Our workshops enrich pupils’ learning around the story of Müller and his 10,000 orphans, providing an insight into what life was like for poor children in Victorian Bristol.

We would encourage visits to our museum, but we can bring the story of George Müller to your school, either in a classroom setting, or as an assembly. We would need facilities for a visual presentation, and we have some photographs and artefacts that we can bring to illustrate the story, including original orphan uniforms. Please contact us as above.
We have a range of teaching resources and lesson ideas available which are free of charge and can be downloaded from our website.
We are more than happy to supply additional resources (where available) for you to use in your school. Please contact us with any specific requests that you have.
