National Football Museum
National Football Museum
The National Football Museum houses the greatest collection of football memorabilia, artefacts and archives in the UK.
Amazing collections
We are proud to care for the world’s greatest football collection - over 140,000 items - including the FIFA Collection.
Great exhibitions
We explore football - past and present - through world class exhibitions, looking at the game from every angle, telling the stories that matter to all of us.
Football changes lives
We use the power of football to improve people’s lives, through our outstanding learning and community programmes.
Superb service
We provide superb service to our visitors in all that we do.
Our Mission
The Museum is for everyone, regardless of age, gender, disability, sexuality, religion or any other factor. It is not just for those who are interested in or passionate about the sport.
NFM aims to be the first point of contact with football for non-fans and an introduction to wider aspects of culture and history for football fans. NFM has a particular focus on those sections of the community that do not usually visit museums and galleries.
The Museum has a long-term mission, a responsibility to protect football’s heritage and culture for future generations as well as current audiences.
Hall of Fame
The National Football Museum is the home of football's Hall of Fame. We celebrate the greatest players, managers and teams of all time in English football. Each year our selection panel chooses from the categories of Male player, Female player, Manager, Football For All and Community Champion.
We also induct great Historical Teams. Explore and click the links below to find out more about the Hall of Fame, its members and upcoming events.
