The Postal Museum - Season's Greetings from The Postal Museum!

 

Holiday opening hours
We'll be open Tuesday to Sunday throughout the festive period (except for Sunday, 24 December and Tuesday, 26 December when the museum will be closed).

It's a great time to ride festive Mail Rail, view our heart-warming collection of letters to Father Christmas, or plan a cracking visit for the New Year.

Happy Holidays!
What's On
A history of Christmas cards
With the festive season upon us we take a look at how Christmas cards came to feature images of smartly dressed posties, pillar boxes and even delivery robins.

To find answers we must go all the way back to the very first Christmas cards.
