Showtown History Centre
Did you know that as part of The Blackpool Heritage and Museum Trust, Showtown also looks after the History Centre; a living archive through which everyone can discover the untold stories of the town and its people.
If you are curious to find out more about Blackpool then you can explore the archives, local history resources and museum collections (not on display in Showtown), covering everything from family history to the big historic events which started right here.
The Showtown History Centre is based on the first floor of Blackpool Central Library on Queen Street.
