Set on the banks of the River Thames in Henley-on-Thames, the award-winning River & Rowing Museum has three permanent galleries devoted to the River Thames, the international sport of rowing and the town of Henley on Thames.
Newly opened in summer 2006 is the Schwarzenbach International Rowing Gallery. This completely refurbished gallery full of interactive exhibits and video footage tells the story of international rowing from 19th Century professionals to modern Olympians. You can experience the thrill of racing at Henley Regatta in the world's only 'In the Cox's Seat' interactive experience.
There is also a permanent walk-through attraction of Kenneth Grahame's ‘The Wind in the Willows’. The famous illustrations of EH Shepard are brought to life in an enchanting recreation of the English classic.
