It has been a successful year for St Fagans National Museum of History, one of Europe’s leading open air museums. Set just outside of Cardiff, the Museum, which opened in 1948, stands in the grounds of the magnificent St Fagans Castle, a late 16th-century manor house. The Museum, which celebrated its 70th birthday last year with a major National Lottery funded makeover, showcases how the people of Wales have lived – from the world of a 230,000-year-old Neanderthal child to present day. In July 2019, St Fagans was named Art Fund Museum of the Year 2019 - the most prestigious museum prize in the world. The Museum has reached the final of the 25th National Lottery Awards - to vote for St Fagans go to lotterygoodcauses.org.uk/awards OR use the hashtag #NLAStFagans on twitter.
