Museum of Lancashire Redevelopment Project

At the 'new' Museum of Lancashire, 2000 years of Lancashire's history will be brought to life, through 8 new and interactive galleries. Explore archaeological finds revealing tales from the county's past. Journey through stories of Lancashire at work and play. Experience the life of a WW1 soldier in our all new atmospheric trench. Take your place in the dock and discover Lancashire's law and order from Victorian times to present day.

Find your place in the Lancashire story and join us in our celebration of all things Lancashire. From Prehistoric axes to Lancashire looms, Victorian shackles to comedienne Hylda Baker's famous costumes. There will really be something to appeal to everyone.

Discover the stories behind some of the objects. Here are just some of the hidden gems to be displayed, some of them for the first time.
