100 Treasures and Curiosities draws on the extensive collection of Carisbrooke Castle Museum to reveal some of the Isle of Wight's most historic and significant stories alongside more unusual and quirky tales from the Island's past. Established by Princess Beatrice in 1898, the museum was intended to be 'a treasury of objects illustrative of the history of the island'. In the 125 years since, the museum's collection has constantly grown and developed and now comprises over 35,000 objects ranging from the everyday to the exotic, from utilitarian to pure novelty. Today, Carisbrooke Castle Museum is a charity-run independent accredited museum and remains dedicated to the Island's rich and varied history.
