Always wanted to know more about Ulster Museum's unique building and the collections within it? For European Heritage Open Days, we're hosting a talk & tour on Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th September to explore the building's fascinating origin, architecture and journey of change. Since 1972, the Ulster Museum has been home to Northern Ireland’s rich collection of art, history and natural sciences. Discover the history of the Belfast Natural History and Philosophical Society, hear the story of the Reverend Canon Grainger and the Grainger Room, and how these collections were brought together by the Belfast Corporation.
Learn about the Brutalist extension added to the Museum in the 1960s by Francis Pym, and the stained glass windows designed by Neil Shawcross.
The lecture will conclude with a short 15 minute tour.
