DISCOVER VICTORIA BATHS – Wednesday Guided Tour

DISCOVER VICTORIA BATHS in 2020

Wednesday Afternoon Guided Building Tour

• 
  

  Visit the Manchester landmark that won BBC Two's first Restoration programme.

• No expense was spared and when opened in 1906 the Lord Mayor described it as 'a water palace of which every citizen of Manchester is proud.' The building is remarkably intact.

• Experience the wonder of the beautiful stained glass, rich terracotta, sumptuous tiles and amazing mosaics.

• Victoria Baths served the community for 86 years with three swimming pools, Turkish Baths, a Laundry, Slipper Baths and an Aerotone.

Join us for an entertaining and informative tour of the building, every Wednesday between April and October 2020. Doors open 12:30 and the tour lasts 1 - 1¼ hours.

Before and after the tour you can browse and buy souvenirs and gifts in our wonderful Gift Shop and our beautiful Tea Room will be open, serving hot & cold drinks and snacks. 

• 12:30   Doors open
