Join us for a FREE day during Heritage Open Days Festival.

Discover Leeds' industrial heritage during our FREE Heritage Open Day event.

Step back in time at Leeds Industrial Museum, housed inside the Grade II listed Armley Mills. The museum contains exhibits from the 18th century through to the present day and tells the history of manufacturing in Leeds, including textiles, printing, film and engineering. 

Get close to spinning wheels and working looms in the Textile Galleries. Discover the mill space and learn all about the industries which made Leeds world famous. Take in the panoramic views from the original mill windows and come face-to-face with the huge Potts clock which once greeted holidaymakers to the Morecambe Promenade railway station in the early twentieth century. 

FREE entry - no ticket required.
