Take a Tour of the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, England.

The Ashmolean Museum (in full the Ashmolean Museum of Art and Archaeology) on Beaumont Street, Oxford, England, is the world's first university museum. With the opening of its doors on 24th May 1683, the Ashmolean Museum provided a setting in which the private collection emerged into the public domain. Its first building was built in 1678–1683 to house the cabinet of curiosities Elias Ashmole gave Oxford University in 1677.

This Talking Guide is the perfect companion for a visit to the Museum and includes a Directors introduction and over 50 highlighted objects from its collections, many of them selected by the curators and with their commentary.
