Butetown History & Art Centre

Butetown History and Arts Centre is situated in the heart of Cardiff’s old docklands – (the best part) and unfortunately often over looked by the “new Bay” .

This History and Arts Centre provides lots of information and videos on the history and life of people who actually lived in the area. You can also see the meteoric changes that have happened over the last ten or twenty years in the area. This place is well worth a visit as it documents important sociological information about an era that has been bulldozed to make way for all the new buildings which now dominate the area.

If you’re looking to spend a day in Cardiff Bay be sure to stop by the Butetown Historical centre - reminisce about how Tiger Bay used to look and the trade boom that came with industrialisation. Lots of beautiful art work and information points available.
Sadly often overlooked due to it’s dodgy locale, but worth straying off the beaten track to check out.
