M Shed is one of the best places to visit on a day out in Bristol. It is completely free, although, you should donate if you can, and offers a really broad overview of Bristol’s rich history and culture. It has a brilliant view over Spike Island and the harbourside.
You can learn about the history of Bristol from it’s origins, to its trading past, its shameful period enriching itself from the slave trade and how things have changed in the modern era.
You can learn about the diffeent parts of Bristol, how it was during the wars, and you can see biographies of people who have helped put Bristol on the map.
