The Jane Austen Centre at 40 Gay Street in Bath is a permanent exhibition which tells the
story of Jane's Bath experience - the effect that living here had
on her and her writing.
Jane Austen is perhaps the best known and best loved of Bath's many famous residents
and visitors. She paid two long visits here towards the end of the
eighteenth century, and from 1801 to 1806 Bath was her home.
Her intimate knowledge of the city is reflected in two of her novels,
Northanger Abbey and Persuasion, which are largely
set in Bath.
The
city is still very much as Jane Austen knew it, preserving in its
streets, public buildings and townscapes the elegant well-ordered
world that she portrays so brilliantly in her novels. Now the pleasure
of exploring Jane Austen's Bath can be enhanced by visiting the
Jane Austen Centre in Gay Street. Here, in a Georgian town house
in the heart of the city, the visitor can find out more about Bath
in Jane Austen's time and the importance of Bath in her life and
work.
We
have a secure Online giftshop
which offers an unrivalled selection of Jane Austen and Regency related books,
