Millgate Museum: Millgate Museum is housed in a Victorian warehouse in a picturesque setting on the banks of the River Trent. The museum opened in 1976 and is part of the Millgate Conservation Area, an area of great historical and architectural interest. The museum displays are spread over several floors, accessed only by stairs. There is a cafe on the ground floor serving light refreshments, with a view of boats passing on the river.
We have a rich museum collection of over 70,000 items that contains Archaeology, Costume, Natural History, Art, Photographs, Social History, Civil War and Military items. A small selection of objects from all of these areas are on display at the Museums in our Permanent and Temporary Exhibitions, so come along and have a look at Millgate Museum as there is always something changing and always something new to look and marvel at.
