"In 2013, Newport Museum celebrates 125 years of service – Newport’s original museum opened to the public in 1888."〕 The collections include Archaeology, Social History, Art and Natural History. The most ancient artefacts in the museum are tools made by hunter - gatherers who walked the shores of the Severn estuary hundreds of thousands of years ago. The Roman collections rank amongst the best in Wales, comprising material excavated from the Roman town of Caerwent and the fortress at Caerleon. The Medieval and later collections feature finds from local castles and priories, including an outstanding assemblage from Penhow Castle.
The most significant items of Social History are the Chartist collection of weapons, broadsheets, prints and silver from the 1839 Chartist uprising in Newport and the Transporter Bridge archive, which includes all of the original designs for the bridge and photographs of its construction.
The Fine Arts collections includes paintings by Sir Stanley Spencer, Dame Laura Knight and L.S.Lowry and Welsh artists such as Kyffin Williams, Ceri Richards and Stanley Lewis.
