Opening Hours
The Cole Museum is FREE and open Monday to Friday, 9am – 5pm. We are closed weekends, Bank holidays, and University closure days (listed under Opening Times).
Don’t forget that group visits of 10 or more must be booked in advance!
The Cole Museum is centred at the heart of a working University building, and we must ask our visitors to be considerate of our staff and researchers working on the upper floors by keeping noise levels to a minimum.
Think of us as a quiet space, like a library.
University closure days
The museum is closed at weekends, on Bank Holidays and during the University closure days at Christmas and Easter.
Upcoming closure days:
- Thursday 17th April to Monday 21st April 2025 inclusive
If in doubt please contact us in advance to avoid disappointment.
Activities
We have a some fun activities available to download and print here. Please bring them with you, along with some stationery, as we currently do not have these available at the museum.
