Welcome to Macclesfield Silk Museum Trust

Welcome to the UK’s premier silk attraction

The Silk Museums in Macclesfield tell the definitive story of silk. Compelling exhibits on three sites show a working Victorian Silk Mill, costume and silk manufacturing displays.

This ‘hands on’ experience allows children and grown ups to understand the story of silk from cocoon to catwalk!
