Wilberforce House, located in Kingston upon Hull, England, is a historic house museum dedicated to the life of William Wilberforce, a key figure in the abolition of slavery in the British Empire. The museum, which reopened in May 2023 after renovations, features exhibits on Wilberforce's work and the East Yorkshire regimental collection. Visitors can explore the beautifully restored Grade I listed building, which includes a garden named after Nelson Mandela and a statue of Wilberforce. The adjacent Oriel Chambers houses the Wilberforce Institute for the Study of Slavery and Emancipation, making it a significant site for both tourists and researchers interested in social reform and history.
