Follow your curiosity

Inside a former industrial building, City Museum turns exploration into the attraction. Art and play meet in a sprawling environment that rewards looking around corners, choosing a different route and noticing the materials around you.

An adventure you can shape

Go at the pace that suits your party. Some spaces involve climbing or confined passages, while other areas offer a chance to pause and simply take in the construction. Review the museum’s own guidance before choosing which areas to explore.
