Unmissable. Walk around the building and see the architecture. HISTORIC ENGLAND (historicengland.org.uk) Liverpool's Listed Buildings. Grade I and II. *Cunard Building. Grade II.

We went to the museum of music, based inside the Cunard Building. Amazing

Impressive waterfront building dating back to the early 20th century, head offices of the Cunard Steamship Company until their relocation to Southampton. The design takes inspiration from an Italian palazzo, and is finished in Portland Stone. The building has grade II listed status and is one of Liverpool's famous "Three Graces", alongside the Port of Liverpool Building and Liver Building. Today, the building houses the British Music Experience alongside offices, and from outside is a monument to the city's maritime history.
