About Gothic Victorians at the City Museum

The Victorians were a spooky bunch and loved everything Gothic, from literature to architecture. This autumn, discover the trail of famous Gothic Victorians and design your own Gothic archway and stained glass window!

Don’t miss Dr Harold Halifax’s Victorian Medicine workshop on 25 October at 11am, 1pm and 3pm!  The year is 1901, Queen Victoria has passed away and world is in mourning. Dr Harold Halifax reflects on how medicine and surgery has developed over the late Queen’s reign. Activities include translating medicine names, matching illness to cures, and an interactive arm amputation… that’s right, interactive…arm…amputation!  Includes child friendly gore.

Tickets: Included in admission to the City Musuem
