We visited the museum as a family and we all loved our visit. Plenty of things to see and learn. You'll need a minimum of 2 hours to go through the museum. Finding a parking might be a bit difficult as would be the case on any city centre.

I am a bit surprised to see they have one mummy in here(unwrap), and the exhibition next to it is "Death" I enjoy the Death exhibition showing how different cultures treat Death and make me think a lot as well.

Nice museum to visit, especially considering it's free of charge. Staff are kind and welcoming. A new and very emotive exhibition regarding Death was recently opened. It explores so many aspects of death and the culture around it. Likely to be upsetting to those who have experienced loss or sensitive to said themes and suicide. It does include a warning on entrance. Many aspects were interactive and they have many videos on to watch about stuff within the museum. Unfortunately, certain interactive parts of the museum didn't work but it didn't impact much. Can't wait to see the next exhibition.

During half term the museum was still relatively calm, which is helpful for myself as an adult with sensory issues and anxiety. There are so many aspects to the museum meaning anyone will enjoy it here, and there is something for all ages, not directly aimed at children, which allows us older history lovers to get stuck in too! Overall, always a lovely experience at Leeds City, definitely will be visiting again soon.

I cant believe i never heard of this place. It's free and it's great for kids. Lots of history. A must.

I visited here in April 2024. This is a free museum with an eclectic mix of things to see about the area, its history, and its people.
