For greater insight into the history of Bristol, M Shed is the museum to visit. Located in a former dockside transit shed, the museum houses some 3,000 artefacts and stories displayed across three main galleries: Bristol Places, Bristol People and Bristol Life. There’s also an exhibition on the city’s role in the slave trade.
