Galkoff’s tiled butcher’s shop facade takes centre stage in a new display on migration, community and housing, supported by the National Lottery
Roller-skating Victorians, gruesome murders, forgotten zoological gardens, a bustling kosher butcher’s shop and a vibrant community are just some of the elements in an eclectic history uncovered in a fascinating corner of Liverpool.
Supported by a grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund and by National Lottery players, the exhibition is a new display at the Museum of Liverpool, in partnership with Liverpool School of Tropical Medicine (LSTM). It is also the culmination of research, archaeological digs, a painstaking conservation project and the assistance of more than 70 volunteers.
