The Heritage Centre at Lulworth Cove is open every day with free admission.
The Centre is dominated by the exhibitions which are constantly being reviewed and
updated. The rock display is the main feature leading you through millions of years
of the Earths history, which is found at Lulworth, using informative boards and displays.
One of the most popular features is the video of the sea showing you what a storm
can be like at Lulworth, from which you can begin to understand the contribution
the sea has made to the erosion of the coast, which in turn, has lead to the spectacular
visible displays of our nations geology.
The Lulworth Rangers are based at the Heritage Centre to maintain the footpaths,
manage our ecology project and organise educational tours for school children, students
and the public.
The Heritage Centre at Lulworth Cove is free to all and includes various informative
exhibitions and displays showing the history of Lulworth from its famous geology
to wildlife and some local history.
The Heritage Centre and its shop, selling quality souvenirs are open daily from 10
am to 6 pm in summer and 10 am and 4 pm in winter. Please check opening times prior
