About

The Museum Collection Centre is the main store for Birmingham Museums, holding around a million items. With only a small percentage of collections on display at Birmingham Museums, or on loan to other organisations, it is the only place to see collection items not normally on display.

It is open for the public to explore on Friday afternoons only. Pre-booking is essential.
