This place is a treasure! They have tours starting at noon. The guide we had was pleasant and very informative. Youre allowed an hour during the tour but really you only need about 30 min tops.

Free guided tours filled with history and interesting facts! Wonderful way to see this beautiful library

The jewel of Manchester. A must visit especially if you're interested in this city's rich legacy.

What a beautiful gem in Manchester! Today we visited this wonderful place and were given a great tour by Brian and Marjorie. They were very knowledgeable and patiently answered all our questions. The tour and admission is free of charge however a donation of 3 is recommended. As you enter the building, you enter a different world, and you go back in time to the 1600s. The books are incredibly well-preserved and it was fascinating to find out that Chetham's is also a place where talented pupils who aspire to be musicians take classes here and live here as well. It's just like a boarding school/university. Moreover, people can access the library and borrow books free of charge.I cannot recommend highly enough! Will certainly return for another visit!

We received a fantastic tour of the medieval buildings by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide, free of charge. The library has a timeless, indescribable feel, and contains books up to 900 years old which are available to study free of charge with librarian assistance. Visiting Chetham's Library is highly recommended.
