ABOUT THE TRUST
Bath Preservation Trust was set up in 1934 to safeguard the historic city of Bath. Bath is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the only complete city in the UK afforded World Heritage Status. For more information about our World Heritage education resources please click here
The purposes of the Trust are:
• to encourage and support the conservation, evolution and enhancement of Bath and its environs within a framework appropriate both to its historic setting and its sustainable
future;
• and to provide educational resources which focus on the architectural and historic importance of the city.
The Trust also runs or helps to run four of the best museums in Bath:
• No. 1 Royal Crescent
• Building of Bath Collection
• Beckford’s Tower
• Herschel Museum of Astronomy
The Trust receives no statutory funding and is supported by donations, grants, and income from visitors to its museums, as well as 1400 members who share a passion for the city and its environs.
The quality of its learning provision at the Building of Bath Collection has recently been recognised by a Learning Outside the Classroom Quality Badge.
