Return visit to the since-updated museum in leicester after more than ten years. a medium-sized regional museum, more impressive than some. as usual, it covers a diverse collection of subjects, from victorian paintings (a small but distinguished selection, permanent), artefacts from ancient egypt, zoology items that help explain the wonders of the natural world, and - of course - a couple of dinosaur rooms. plenty of stuff for the whole family, and you'll often find primary school classes here. on the ground floor, there's also a café and a museum shop (naturally), while the temporary exhibitions can be found on the upper level (lifts available). there were two ones during my visit, one of which was devoted to the "punk" music and fashion scene of the 1970s, the other to (mostly) german expressionist art of the 1920s, including paintings of the "brücke" and "blauer reiter" movements, which appealed to me more than the punk thingee. anyway, leicester museum and art gallery is certainly worth a visit if you spend any amount of time in the city. free entry, and photography is allowed even in the temporary exhibits.
It's a really nice museum,i went to the 80's event they have on at the minute ,it was so good to see all the things from my childhood days,well worth a visit👍🏻😁😁

It's a great museum, spacious with many exhibitions. nice coffee shop. went for the punk exhibition, which was excellent. could've put it on the ground floor though, for us old 'uns with dodgy knees :) joking aside though, great place, lovely area. highly recommended.
This must be one of the best museums in the country and it's free to enter. it's got a ton to see and do. there is everything from dinosaurs to egyptian mummy's. and then some real fine art and crafts. when we visited there was the punk exhibition on and. it has so many cool costumes and artifacts from the 70s punk era. it truly is a must see if your a old school punk.
