Artists will love the Art Gallery Whitworth. It bears the name of its founder, the wealthy engineer D. Whitworth, who is known throughout the world as the creator of a sniper rifle. It was on his donations that the fine art museum was opened. Paintings by famous artists of the turn of the 19th - 20th centuries are presented here. This museum will be interesting for fans of the works of Picasso, Van Gogh and Gauguin to visit. In 2003, the museum lost part of its collection as a result of robbery. However, it was possible to find the robbers quickly and return priceless masterpieces to the museum.
A very interesting collection of exhibits is presented to visitors of the Museum of Science and Industry. It is housed in an ancient building, which used to be a railway station. The main exhibits of this museum are elements of the old industrial equipment, which are in excellent condition and continue to productively functions. This museum is appreciated for the variety of interactive exhibits, despite the serious themes. It will be interesting even for tourists with children to visit it.
