Description
Once home to a crew of up to 950 men, HMS Belfast, part of
Imperial War Museums, tells the stories of those who lived and worked on board
this warship during the Second World War and beyond. Imagine sleeping in one of
the tightly-packed hammocks during convoy duties in icy Arctic waters, or being
stationed deep in the bowels of the ship when she opened fire in support of
Allied troops on D-Day.
Explore nine decks of amazing history, from the daily
drudgery of peeling spuds in the Galley to the sights and sounds of controlling
a fleet of ships in the interactive Operations Room. Hear veterans’ first-hand
experiences in the Life at Sea exhibition, and discover for yourself what it
would have been like to be in the midst of a battle in the thrilling Gun Turret
Experience.
