International Slavery Museum
Hosted by National Museums Liverpool offers the opportunity for clients to enjoy a conference, private dinner or drinks reception surrounded by our internationally important collections of stunning art and beautiful artefacts.
The International Slavery Museum opened on 23 August 2007. Not only was this the date of the annual Slavery Remembrance Day, but the year 2007 was particularly significant as it was the bicentenary of the abolition of the British slave trade. The International Slavery Museum highlights the international importance of slavery, both in a historic and contemporary context. Working in partnership with other museums with a focus on freedom and enslavement, the museum provides opportunities for greater awareness and understanding of the legacy of slavery today. It is located in Liverpool's Albert Dock, at the centre of a World Heritage site and only yards away from the dry docks where 18th century slave trading ships were repaired and fitted out. One of the greatest groups of national museums in the world, National Museums Liverpool is ideally placed to elevate this subject onto an international stage.
