National Waterways Museum, Gloucester, National museum in Gloucester Docks, England
The National Waterways Museum occupies the Llanthony Warehouse, displaying exhibits about Britain's inland waterways across multiple floors of the restored building.
The Grade II listed grain warehouse received extensive renovations through a £1 million Heritage Lottery Fund grant, transforming it into an educational institution.
The museum presents artifacts and stories from canal communities, documenting the social evolution of British waterways through interactive exhibits and historical displays.
Visitors can purchase annual passes that grant unlimited entry for 12 months, with separate pricing tiers for adults, children, and family groups.
The facility maintains a specialized wildlife trail around the docks where guests observe local bird populations in an industrial setting.
