Opening times
Our museums are open seven days a week from Saturday 14th February to Sunday 22nd November 2026
Workhouse Museum 10am – 4pm
Prison & Police Museum 10am – 4pm
Courthouse Museum 1pm -4pm
We are busy with essential renovation and restoration work at the Workhouse Museum, which means one of our buildings is temporarily closed.
While this important work takes place, there’s still plenty to see and do at the Workhouse Museum and across our other museums – the Prison & Police Museum and the Courthouse Museum.
Discover compelling, real-life stories of poverty, crime and punishment in Victorian Yorkshire, brought to life through our exhibitions and collections.
