Imperial War Museum North
The multi-award winning Imperial War Museum North (one of the top 4 Large Visitor Attractions in England 2010) is one of the most celebrated Museums in Britain today. Imperial War Museum North is about people and their stories, about how lives have been and still are shaped by war and conflict. The award-winning building by international architect Daniel Libeskind is a symbol of our world torn apart by conflict and is situated at The Quays, a waterfront destination 2 miles from Manchester city centre.
