A MOTÖRHEAD museum has opened its doors in Burslem, the birthplace of frontman Lemmy Kilmister.

The mini museum is part of Old No.

6, a visitor centre created by IFK Legacy CIC to welcome fans from around the world.

The centre includes a bar serving official MOTÖRHEAD beers and "Lemmy lemonade", alongside the museum featuring MOTÖRHEAD memorabilia and artwork.

Fans can visit from Friday, May 1 at 12 noon, just in time for the bank holiday weekend.

The venue will also help raise funds for the Lemmy Project, including plans to transform the Grade II listed Queen's Theatre into Kilmister Halls — a 1,500 capacity music venue and cultural hub honouring the MOTÖRHEAD frontman.

A year ago, a Lemmy statue was unveiled during a ceremony in Burslem, constructed by local sculptor Andy Edwards out of Staffordshire clay.

The statue captures Lemmy in all his live glory from the 1981 era, which saw MOTÖRHEAD headline the Heavy Metal Holocaust just down the road at Port Vale Stadium back on August 1, 1981.
