Fleur de Lis Heritage Centre

Headquarters of the Faversham Society, the Fleur de Lis Heritage Centre hosts a museum, gallery, the town's VIC, and a heritage bookshop, with a second-hand bookshop just round the corner.

The museum is much larger than it's modest entrance suggests and visitors should take at least an hour to look round. The displays lead visitors through the history of Faversham from early archaeological evidence, through its medieval prosperity as a bustling trading centre, its Elizabethan growth, and subsequent industrial development - including important explosives manufacture, brewing, brickmaking and shipbuilding.
