Jordan Well, Coventry, CV1 5QP
Right in the heart of the city, this much-loved Coventry institution packs in art, history, and enough interactive bits to keep kids genuinely entertained rather than just tolerating a cultural outing. The permanent collections cover Lady Godiva to the Blitz, so there's always something to spark a "wait, that's actually interesting" moment from even the most reluctant visitor. It's free to get in, which makes it perfect for a rainy Tuesday when you need somewhere decent to go and don't fancy spending a fortune.
