Moments in Time - Coventry Watch Museum
Court 7, Rear of Public House, Medieval Spon Street, Coventry, West Midlands, CV1 3BN
Coventry has a rich history in the clock and watchmaking trades, dating back to the 17th century when the city became a hub for clock and watch manufacturing. Known for its skilled artisans and innovative techniques, Coventry produced timepieces that were both functional and beautifully crafted. The industry thrived well into the 19th century, contributing significantly to the city’s economy and cultural identity. Today, the legacy continues as Coventry Watch Museum celebrates Coventry's watchmaking heritage, showcasing a blend of traditional craftsmanship and modern innovation, making it a unique destination for enthusiasts and collectors alike.
There will be Coventry clocks and watches made by Coventry watchmakers on display alongside volunteers who will be on hand to talk and explain facts about the watches.
