In a grassy space below the church, this museum tells the tale of Seaford’s German origins. There are maps and photographs of the early settlement, plus artifacts spanning 150 years, including curiosities like cricket bats made from the stems of coconut leaves. The building is usually locked; ask around town or at the HEART/NTA (National Training Agency) school for the good Mrs Shakes, who keeps the key to the museum.
