3. Museum of the Jewellery Quarter / Discovery Center

The jeweler's artistry is revealed in this guided tour of a once-functioning workshop, frozen in time since 1981. Drawing on Birmingham's long tradition of jewelry making, a knowledgeable staff demonstrates the techniques used by skilled craftsmen through the ages. Information about the city's jewelry shops is available, and you can buy pieces from contemporary designers in the museum's gift shop. Books, souvenirs and refreshments are offered, as well.   (© 10Best)
