National justice museum

A visit to the National Justice Museum tends to stay with people long after they’ve left. A museum of crime, punishment and social justice, we are based in the Grade II* listed Shire Hall in Nottingham. Over five floors, our building houses a Victorian courtroom, Georgian gaol, and cells that date back hundreds of years. As you explore our historic spaces, you’ll meet our team of costumed chara cters, ready to share real stories from the history of our gaol. Our actors also re-enact historical court cases, linked to the themes of our latest exhibition...

The museum of curiosities

Here at The Museum Of Curiosities we house many haunted items and oddities from around the world, including shrunken heads, Voodoo skulls, cursed Dybbuk boxes, the Devils toy box and much much more. Also see the last remaining Victorian hearse in existence, on which the handle has been seen to move all by itself (video evidence is here in the venue).
