Housed in the original Bath post office, which issued the world's first postage stamp, the Penny Black on 2nd May 1840, the Bath Postal Museum opened in 1979 to tell the history of mail delivery from 2000 B.C. to the present day. Historic artifacts such as antique postboxes are on display alongside images and models depicting the changes in the post. The film room offers a short film dramatizing the beginnings of the postal service. Don't miss the library, children's activities room, and special exhibition room.
