Good place to pass the time

I visited Gibraltar Crystal several times. It was fascinating watching the glass blowers in action. It is a different place to hut birthday presents for friends. There was a school trip on my first visit. The children were very well behaved.

Lovely art and goods

Great to see the actual pieces being made and view the finished products. I didn’t realise glass was so versatile.

Very, very interesting

Having visited before, we already knew some of the skills of glass making, but on a second visit, a lot more information was made more apparently clear. They have an excellent shop beside the workshop as well, exiting into Casemates Square.

To be able to walk around museum cases to look at the history and old tools of glass making with glass making actually going on brought it all alive. For free you can view how hard, hot and skilled the work is. The shop next...More

Interesting displays, incredible prices!

Really enjoyed the demonstrations of glass blowing which drew quite a crowd, and went next door to the shop enthused enough to make a purchase, but ended up with quite small gifts simply because of the astronomical prices

The opening times are 9.00 a.m to 17.00 p.m. As far as I am aware I don't think they would be willing to repair any broken glass item . But you can ask them when you get there.

I've looked at their website and I can't for the life of me find the opening hours! Are they open on Sunday afternoons? Thanks
