Pontypridd Museum

14/10/2026

We are still seeking feedback on the museum as part of the consultation phase of the refurbishment of our upstairs gallery. 📝

We want to gain public opinion on the museum, what you would like to see from us and what matters to you most about Pontypridd history.

A consultation station has been set up at the front of the museum where you are able to provide comments and answer our 'question of the week.'

If you are unable to visit the museum in the next few weeks but would like to provide feedback then please email [email protected] for a copy of the consultation questions.
