Find out more about our collections and exhibitions, the building and the Barbers themselves, from our friendly tour guides. You’ll be treated to a wealth of insider knowledge and interesting anecdotes and have the chance to ask questions. All tours last an hour and are free—meet in the foyer under Lady Barber’s portrait.

If arranged in advance, we can also provide guided tours or introductory talks to visiting groups at other times. Led by our experienced guides or curatorial staff, tours can accommodate up to 25 people, with a maximum of two groups at a time. There is a charge of £4 per head, and payment can be made on the day, by cheque made payable to University of Birmingham.

All tours last approximately one hour.
