Happy International Museum Day to everyone! 🌍🏛️
Did you know that Derby is home to the only Sikh museum in England?
The The Sikh Museum on Princess Street is open to everyone and entry is completely FREE.
Visitors can come between 10am and 3pm, and someone will be available to provide a guided tour and share the rich history, culture, and heritage of Sikhism.
It’s a beautiful place to learn, reflect, and explore — whether you are Sikh or from any other background. Everyone is welcome.
On this International Museum Day, let’s celebrate the importance of preserving history, culture, and community for future generations. ❤️ Book your sikh visit with us for wonderful experience.
