Situated next to Preston North End's Deepdale stadium, the National Football Museum opened its doors in 2001 and features more than 25,000 football related exhibits. Collections include the FIFA collection, Football Association collection, Football League collection, FIFA World Cup collection and Preston North End FC collection.

The museum is also a well-used conference and events venue.

Outside the museum is the larger-than-life bronze Splash statue. Created in 2002, it depicts Preston and England football legend Sir Tom Finney's most famous moments, showing Sir Tom controlling a pass from colleague Tommy Docherty under atrociously wet conditions at Chelsea's Stamford Bridge.
