Sunderland Museum, Winter Gardens

Very nice place to visit with children outside beautiful green park. Unfortunately lift is not working in botanic garden.

Lohnenswerte Einrichtung mit freiem Eintritt. Das kleine Museum zeigt in kompakter und anschaulicher Weise die Highlights regionaler Natur und Geschichte. Der Wintergarten besteht aus einem Glasdachkomplex mit warm-feuchtem Klima und entsprechender Flora. Das Café eignet sich bestens, um eine Pause zu machen. Der schöne Park dahinter ebenso.

Great place full of historical information which grandchildren enjoyed.

Great place to spend a wet Bank Holiday Monday. Lots of interesting exhibits from Mining to Glass and Shipbuilding to Pottery. Loved the life through the 20th century exhibit. The Winter Garden is lovely with some very impressive plants. Not so keen on the cheap plastic dinosaurs, though, and I'm not convinced they do much to keep children interested. We had tea and cake in the cafe which was very nice. Definitely pleased we visited.

So much to see! Brilliant and right in the city centre. Lots of local history and the art gallery is very informative with local artists.

Came for the first time in 4 years to show my 2 year old granddaughter. A little disappointed by the number of things not working..... The worst being the lift in the winter gardens. No way for a buggy or wheelchair to get to the viewing level. One walkway closed off. Bits of the exhibits broken. Various dinosaurs half heartedly hidden in the foliage... One fallen sideways. Still got the lion and the fish though!

Went first time on Easter half term with 7 and 5 years old. So much to see🤩 Kids really enjoyed and me too. Park with playground just across the street. Highly recommended. Free entry

Nice Café, had lovely Soup 🍲 with Bread 🍞 and Very Friendly Staff...
