The Minories is located in Colchester’s cultural quarter at No. 74 High Street, alongside Firstsite, Hollytrees, the Castle and the Natural History Museum. With our secure walled garden and cafe, we are ideally located for a pause on your day in the city centre.

We want everyone to feel welcome in our spaces, so we have put together information about where we are, how to find us, and what to expect in our spaces.

Step-free access is available via the back gate, which is opposite the entrance to Firstsite Art Gallery.

We are based in a Grade II listed historical building, and are currently only partially wheelchair accessible. We are working on our accessibility, but in the meantime, if you need any advice in advance that you cannot find on this website please contact us and we will be happy to help.
