Best Museums in Dukinfield

"While not a museum per se, Manchester Art Gallery is home to exhibitions focusing on the development of the arts over time and eras of history. If you are a fashion lover, this should definitely be one of your sightseeing stops, as they usually host at least one exhibition connected to fashion."

"There is so much amazing street art in the city and some of the works are really Instagrammable. Some of my favourite paintings were the one of Arya Stark and, of course, Eleven from the Stranger Things. Some other street art in Manchester that I loved included these works in the photos below."

"The National Football Museum is the place to come if you want to learn all about Manchester’s two football clubs, Manchester City and Manchester United. There are a range of interactive exhibits here and this is without a doubt an important pit stop for anyone even remotely interested in football (if you’re not into football, you’d be forgiven for skipping this one).

"Sheffield's prodigious industrial heritage is the subject of this excellent museum, set on a human-made island in the city's oldest industrial district. Exhibits cover all aspects of industry, from steel-making to knife-sharpening. The most impressive display is the thundering 12,000-horsepower River Don steam engine (the size of a house), which gets powered up twice a day, at noon and 2pm. The museum is 800m north of the city centre; take the tram (£1.70) from Sheffield train station to the Shalesmoor stop."

"This great museum highlights Sheffield’s famous steel industry. Situated on a man-made island that dates back 900 years, its exhibits span three floors. Don’t miss the demonstration of the River Don Engine, which is absolutely huge, and immensely powerful."

"A photo posted by Helen Morecroft (@helenwm9) on May 25, 2016 at 12:40pm PDT. Take a trip to the Millennium Galleries, where you can visit The Ruskin Collection – a range of exhibits curated by Victorian writer John Ruskin, and intended to inspire Sheffield’s workers during that era. From detailed imagery of trees and landscapes to original sketches of birds and wildlife, hours can be spent gazing at this collection of unique work."

"Designed by some of the most renowned architects in the UK, the Millennium Gallery is a piece of art in itself. But the reason people visit is for the eclectic collections it’s home to, including the Ruskin Collection: watercolours, drawings, prints, coins, manuscripts, and illustrated books used to inspire Sheffield’s Victorian workforce. The Craft and Design centre exhibits a modern take on Victorian themes."

"Our first All Day Café is housed within Sheffield’s Millennium Gallery. Designed by architects Pringle Richards Sharratt, the building is a symphony of concrete and glass and it’s an honour to be able to serve the people of Sheffield in such an iconic cultural institution. Bookings can only be made using either Instagram DMs, popping in to physically book or dropping us an email at ambulomg@outlook.com."

"Over the past 125+ years, the Whitworth has seen many transformations but none so much as its recent £15 million development, resulting in accolades such as RIBA National Award and Art Fund’s Museum of the Year 2015. Now home to an internationally important collection numbering 60,000 works - blending high-profile names like Blake, Spencer, Rembrandt and Moore with fresh new talent - the gallery’s principal aim remains the same: ‘the perpetual gratification of the people of Manchester’."

"The Whitworth Art Gallery in Manchester has a very Instagrammable restaurant. With all glass walls it feels like your in the middle of nature. You have beautiful views over the park in which you can find the Whitworth Gallery."

"The Whitworth will partially reopen from Wednesday 19 May 2021. The gallery is expected to reopen fully from Thursday 1 July 2021."
