Museum of Science and Industry

The whole Museum will be closed on Tuesday 23 March as a result of essential work needed as part of the redevelopment of Main Building.  We apologise for any inconvenience caused.  For full details of this exciting project, click here.

Are you a member of a Probus group, Women's institute or just a group of friends looking for an interesting and entertaining day out?  If so, then MOSI is the place to visit. Any size of group is always welcome at MOSI.

Explore the many fascinating galleries, packed full of interesting facts and amazing artefacts and let us make your day a memorable one by organising a talk or demonstration by a member of our experienced staff.

Experience the sights and sounds of the cotton mills in our Textiles Gallery as thunderous machinery spins and weaves raw cotton in to thread.

Marvel at the mighty moving wheels of industry as we power-up the largest collection of working steam engines in the Power Hall.

Take a trip down memory lane and visit the recreated living rooms of the 1930s and 1950s in the Electricity Gallery and see how domestic appliances have changed throughout the years.
