1940s Swansea: what do users think?

Nicholas Hackett: I came here when I was in primary school and enjoyed as actors made it feel real. Came another day with parents few years later it. Unfortunately no actors that day I went with my parents. Shame its closing.

Tegan Scott: I remember coming here in primary and instantly remembered this place and started crying lmao, want to visit again sicne it’s been about 5 years.

petejones75: A most amazing little museum.. It is just reopened after closing for COVID-19. Well worth the visit and they really need our support right now. It was like a tardis unassuming on the outside but vast on the inside.. went on and on.. with bomb shelters, rooms of memorabilia and even a recreated high street...trenches too. My kids loved dressing up.. so much effort made by the owners. Great thing to do on a rainy morning

Denise Harvey: Hands on experience for children to learn

Claire Hauxwell: This museum gives a fascinating insight into wartime Britain. It is great to see how much they've fitted in. I took a group of school children, and they all thoroughly enjoyed it.

paul wild: Great Museum , really good displays, lots of interesting fact about Swansea at war and there is a 1940's street with mock shops.Well worth a visit . Contact them first for current opening hours and entrance fee

Paul Hodges: Very interesting took a school group there they really enjoyed the trip

Elizabeth Dalley: Excellent really enjoyable very well organised

S Watkins: Lots to learn about the 2nd WW, very educational. Friendly staff. It takes less that 90 min the tour.

Z Llewellyn: Took my nan over the summer. She really enjoyed looking around and telling me stories about the things in there. Staff were super friendly.

Jo Dufay: Fascinating place, I would really recommend it for all ages. Information is clearly displayed and exhibits explained in a straightforward way, but also provide a depth of information if you want it. I came here with my mother - who is 86 and lived through WW2 in Swansea - and my best friend who, like me, grew up in Swansea. There is a lot to see and experience here, and we all learned a lot.
