Black Country Living Museum

Black Country Living Museum opened in the 1960s and is an open spaced museum based on the 1850s industrial life that you can explore self guided. The museum features over 80 buildings that have been either translocated, recreated or replicated along with over 100,000 items to give visitors an immersive experience. The Black Country region was one of the most industrial areas of the UK for its coal mines and factories.

Whilst being a key place for preserving the history, Black Country Living Museum is also famous for being the primary set location for the TV show ‘Peaky Blinders’. Visitors can explore the exact sets that were used in the show such as ‘Charlie’s Yard’.
