Kelham Island Museum

Part of Sheffield Museums, Kelham Island Museum is located in one of the city's oldest industrial districts and stands on a man-made island over 900 years old.

Kelham Island Museum’s interactive galleries tell the story of light trades and skilled workmanship to mass production. Learn what it was like to live and work in Sheffield during the Industrial Revolution and follow the sights and sounds of progress through the Victorian era and two world wars to discover how steelmaking forged the city of today and its impact on the modern world.
