Top 10 Art Galleries in Birmingham, England

October 21, 2021 Ying Subia

The geographical heart of England, Birmingham started life as a sixth- century Anglo-Saxon village. Today, much of this city of over a million dates back to post-WWII redevelopment in the 1950s and 60s. Cutting edge museums and galleries, innovative theaters and excellent shopping have contributed to Birmingham's appeal as a weekend break destination. Don't miss the hopping bars and cafes of Gas Street Basin or the fascinating creatures at the National Sea Life Centre.

Formerly the Standard Works this building had been empty for many years but now is a home to a College for People who need some support. Part includes and excellent cafe whilst another is dedicated to the old Jewellery Quarter trades. Well worth a visit and support.

Reviewed By sinclairselections - Solihull, United Kingdom

One of my favourite galleries in all the world. Some magnificent & interesting unique paintings - often in almost to yourself - only a few visitors. A thoughtful selection over many centuries. I have a number of "special favourites" - look out for the still life which has a perfect representation of the peel of a lemon When I went back to Birmingham University to attend an adult specialist course years ago, it provided a sanctity of peace, calm & reason . It could be a life-changing & spiritual experience
