The Lampeter Museum was founded by Hanes Llambed, the local history society, in 2014 at the town's university campus.[1] In Welsh, it is known as Amgueddfa Llambedr Pont Steffan. The museum covers the cultural and agricultural development of Lampeter as well as the history of the college which was founded in 1822. The first exhibition hosted by the museum was about the town during the first world war.[2]
