Overview

Ever wondered what life in Speightstown was like in the 18th century? Curious about how a colonial house from 1750 became a vibrant interactive museum for all ages? Ready to dive into the captivating heritage and culture of Barbados? Then look no further!
At Arlington House Museum you will experience the vibe of the vendors and potters who once lined these streets. See some of the vintage items of previous years. View the map of Barbados in terms of family names while learning about the proud residence of Speightstown and surrounding areas. Step into the “cane fields” as you hear from the man in the fields to modern Barbados. On the top floor, don't let the “winds” of Hurricane Janet blow you away. This is just a sample of the engaging experience you will have with us at Arlington House Museum in the once bustling town called “Little Bristol”
