In a beautiful 130-year old Alfred Waterhouse building, Manchester Museum stands proud as part of the University of Manchester on Oxford Road. Visitors lose themselves in stories of what it is to be human and rethink their relationships with the natural world, but how many really think about the museum itself? 
Focusing on architecture, this special guided tour will take you on a journey through time, since the Museum origins to the Manchester Museum that we love today. 
The tour will be followed by a mouth-watering vegetarian afternoon tea of your choice at the Museum Café.
