People's History Museum

  People's History Museum, located along Left Bank in the city center of Manchester, serves as the UK’s national museum of democracy. Established in 1998 and housed in a former Edwardian pump house, it showcases the rich history of the British working class and their struggles for rights and representation. One notable display is the original suffragette banner, a powerful symbol of the fight for women's voting rights. Open year-round, the museum offers engaging exhibits and interactive activities suitable for all ages. Visitors can explore the extensive collections ranging from textiles to multimedia presentations that highlight pivotal moments in social history.
