The throne used by Ozzy Osbourne during his final live performance has gone on display at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery.

    The chair, which featured during the Back to the Beginning concert at Villa Park last summer as well as at Osbourne’s Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction, is now part of the museum’s Working Class Hero exhibition.

    The throne has been installed in a glass display case, showing its details including carved skulls, decorative feet and the built-in water cannon used during performances.

    “Black Sabbath and Ozzy Osbourne are synonymous with Birmingham. They’ve done so much for the city, and there’s so much love them in the city,” Jez Collins, from Birmingham Museum, said.

    “It’s iconic, it’s up there with things like the Flying Pig from Pink Floyd, it’s that level of iconic.

    “I’ve literally got goosebumps looking at it.”
