Step Into the Sounds and Stories of the Stamp Room – Free Taster Tours!
To celebrate Heritage Open Days and Birmingham Heritage Week, we’re offering FREE Taster Tours of our historic Stamp Room on Sunday 14th September.
These bite-sized tours are the perfect introduction to the Coffin Works. You’ll explore the Courtyard and Stamp Room of the original Victorian manufactory, where you’ll get a glimpse into the factory’s early years — complete with live demonstrations of our working Victorian machinery.
Tours run every 30 minutes from 11am to 3pm, lasting around 30 minutes each. Please note: this tour focuses on the ground floor and does not include the upper levels of the museum.
Spaces are limited and must be pre-booked to guarantee your place.
And don’t forget to visit our café on the day – serving up drinks, treats, and a great way to enjoy our historic courtyard.
