The Guildhall Museum

It's a free admission museum. opens in the late morning. probably around 11am. there are some places that might be able to scare you just a bit, specially if you are visiting alone. bought a souvenir ( a red feather pen). card machine was not working, so had to pay with cash.

Wow this place is cool as heck. there's plenty to see and it's free entry so you really get value for money. we visited during the summer holidays and it wasn't too crowded. also on site is a rather nice little caffe that's got cheap drinks for sale especially with it been in a prime location in the city.

Small but definitely worth seeing. learn about some of leicester's history. wonderfully preserved old town 'council' hall, including a couple of cells that used to hold prisoners hundreds of years ago. medieval building feel.

Returned 30/05/2033 kids crown and flag craft (free) lots of interactive parts that interested my daughter. she's obsessed with jails, so loved the cells part. she would have liked to be able to go inside a cell and role play. friendly staff. let us park our large trailer in the courtyard for safe keeping. free entry! some interactive stations for kids. jail section which my daughter would love so i will have to return. clean toilets. cafe and gift shop. outside area. would make a lovely spot for a quick picnic.

Visited this musuem as it was near the cathedral and the cathedral was closed. the guildhall itself is impressive and some interactive exhibition about medieval life in leicester. not bad for a free museum.
