Rochdale Pioneers Museum

The Rochdale Pioneers Museum is housed in the building where the Rochdale Equitable Pioneers Society began trading on 21 December 1844. The museum is regarded as the birthplace of the modern co-operative movement and is located in Rochdale, Greater Manchester, England.

The museum includes a recreation of the original shop, featuring its rudimentary furniture, scales, and items that were sold there. It also illustrates the influence of the co-operative movement on issues such as women's rights, poverty, education, fair trade, and social reform. The museum is owned and operated by the Co-operative Heritage Trust.
