Event Details

Do you dare to join us on the 31st October for our special candlelit tour?

On this All Hallows Eve, one of our fantastic tour guides will guide you round the atmospheric Coffin Works on a rare after-hours tour.

The doors will open at 6pm, for a candlelit tour that starts promptly at 6:45pm. The tour lasts for around an hour and a quarter; please wrap up warm as the museum can be cold.

Your tour ticket includes a drink in our Casting Shop café. Before the tour, warm up with a spine-tingling Halloween cocktail or mocktail! Fancy trying our signature Corpse Reviver cocktail? (Please note that food and drinks are not permitted within the museum space, so must be consumed in the café before the tour.)

The Coffin Works preserves the contents of the former Newman Brothers’ manufactory, which opened in 1894 and finally closed its doors in 1998. The shelves and workbenches are full of original stock and tools of the trade, and some of the original machinery is working again so that you can truly experience how this Jewellery Quarter firm once operated. Newman Brothers produced some of the world’s finest coffin furniture, including the fittings for the funerals of Winston Churchill, the Queen Mother and Princess Diana.

Price: £22.00
