Swansea Museum now has a free digital guide on the Bloomberg Connects App. The Bloomberg Connects app allows museums and galleries from around the world to digitally share their collections and content. You do not even have to visit the museum to enjoy the app, you can browse the collections at home as well.
Our guide is designed to provide you with easy access to Swansea Museum’s collections and exhibitions. This app provides in-depth information about our collections that we aren’t always able to provide in our displays.
Once you have downloaded the app, it is easy to find us. If you are in Swansea and your device’s location is on, then Swansea Museum will be at the top of the list of cultural venues.

Now you can start browsing through the collections at your leisure.
When using the guide in the museum, make sure to make use of the ‘show on map’ feature to easily locate collections on display. We will also have lookup number and QR codes around the museum that can provide additional information about items on display.
