The Staffordshire Hoard is in Gallery 16. This unique Anglo-Saxon collection is still in the process of being conserved and in this gallery you can see objects pre-conservation and objects that have newly been conserved.
The Hoard is made up of over 1,500 pieces of beautifully crafted gold and silver from the 7th century Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Mercia.
This exhibition tells the story of the Hoard find and the history of Anglo-Saxon Britain.
As well as seeing the Hoard objects you can also use the interactives to take a closer look at some of the star items that are not currently on display.
There is also the opportunity to handle two replica Saxon swords.
Conservation of the Hoard is taking place at Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery. Due to conservation work, research work and occasional photography and filming days we cannot guarantee which objects will be on display in the gallery. If you would like to check before your visit please phone: 0121 303 1966 or email: bmag_enquiries@birmingham.gov.uk
