![]() Leicestershire Museums GuideThe most comprehensive guide to museums in Leicester, Leicestershire and Rutland!
Visiting museums in Leicester, Leicestershire or Rutland couldn’t be easier. Using
the information in the guide you can plan short trips to individual museums or whole days out to take
in a group of neighbouring museums.
Most museums offer free entry, are suitable for people with
disabilities and have other useful facilities. The symbols against each entry give more information
and opening times are included. There’s also a map, which may help if you’re planning a trip and want
to
visit a number of museums. Don’t forget to use the symbol which will help you plan the length of visit
as there’s a wide range of museum sizes and visits can last from less than an hour to a full day out.
Whatever your interest, there’s something for everyone including local history,
transport, family history, science and industry to windmills and fashion. More detailed information
can be found by contacting the museum directly. Bosworth Battlefield
