Just like some museums - for example, the Museum of the History of Science, Technology and Medicine or Leeds Discovery Centre, where tourists can learn a lot of interesting information about the world around them through interactive exhibits. For those wishing to explore the military history of the whole world, it is worth highlighting the Royal Armouries Museum. Particularly impressive is its building's interior, thanks to which no exhibit can be missed. The collection includes weapons and armor - everything that, in one way or another, is associated with the war. The Thackray Medical Museum introduces visitors to the history of medicine. Its most valuable collection is an exposition dedicated to diseases that have claimed the lives of hundreds of people.
The Leeds City Museum is dedicated to the history of the city and the region. However, among its exhibits, one can also find a collection dedicated to world history. The museum is completely free of charge, and its special feature is a special playground for kids. Besides the beautiful collection, the museum building is attractive with its outstanding architecture. It was built back in 1813 in the Neo-Baroque style and restored only once - after 1941, because many exhibits and the building itself were damaged during the bombing. Leeds Art Gallery will appeal to those wishing to admire some beautiful works of fine and sculptural art, and the M&S Company Archive would be a real find for retro enthusiasts: here they can find everything related to the 1950s and 1960s. Connoisseurs of contemporary art should head to The Tetley Art Gallery.
