About
The Museum of Classical Archaeology is home to more than 600 plaster casts of Greek and Roman sculpture. But our plaster casts are a funny type of object: betwixt and between,
with one foot in the ancient world and one foot in more recent history.
Join us for this tour to look beyond the replica and find out some of the stories behind our
statues, and why even we have a collection of casts here in Cambridge.
This event is part of the Open Cambridge programme.
