This premium retail destination is a must for the itinerary for shopping trips and city breaks to Manchester; it is one of Manchester’s most iconic landmarks and is a big part of the city’s history. It was constructed in its current form between 1914 – 1921 and was officially opened by King George V and Queen Mary upon completion. The building is also home to the much-loved Royal Exchange Theatre.
