Explore, create and discover at Nottingham’s living textile museum. Watch in action the skills and machinery that created ‘Nottingham, City of Lace’, in the county’s only textile museum. See the living and working conditions of some of Victorian Britain’s poorest workers, learn why Nottingham became a great textiles centre, and discover how your Midlands ancestors might have lived. With a tea shop and textiles gift shop, the opportunity to make your own knitted souvenir, children’s trails, a library and extensive hosiery collection, seasonal events, textile workshops and our weekly knitting group, there’s something for everyone. Coming soon: England’s only Luddite exhibition, explore how and why the Luddite riots unravelled in Nottingham in our brand new interactive exhibition.
