The Herbert Art Gallery & Museum is the perfect place to delve into Coventry’s history and engage with art and culture.

Investigate the natural world, modern art, and the Old Masters. Wander through dazzling interactive displays, and enjoy the latest exhibitions while admiring the building’s unique architecture.

As part of our preparations for City Of Culture 2021, Herbert Art Gallery & Museum is redeveloping several gallery spaces. The works will mean that some objects are no longer on permanent display, but it also provides an opportunity to display more of our artworks and ensure we are able to deliver exhibitions of an even higher standard moving forward.

As well as the art gallery’s ever-changing displays which are often created in partnership with national museums, the Herbert offers a wide range of detailed talks, fantastic events and inventive workshops for adults and families. The Herbert Art Gallery encourages creativity, exploration and fun.

Gain a fresh perspective on the legend of Lady Godiva, discover your ancestors’ history in the Coventry Archives, and explore British & European paintings from the 1500s onwards. All of this is just a stone’s throw away from Coventry Cathedral.

The Herbert is also home to Coventry Archives, the city’s destination for historical documents, photographs, maps and archival materials.

You can also book special tours of the Old Grammar School and Medieval Undercroft should you wish to explore Coventry’s rich history further.
