The Naval Heritage Centre will again be opening its gates to visitors on Sunday 23rd October 2016 with the Theme of “Bombs and Bullets”.
There are galleries displaying one of the UK’s largest collections of 1:72 scale model warships, ranging from WW2 to the current day and exhibitions on traditional boat building and the history of navigation.
There are also exhibitions on both the World Wars, collections of uniforms and medals and the history of the Plymouth Breakwater.
This is a wonderful opportunity to immerse yourself in the history and heritage of Devonport, the Naval Base and the Royal Navy and is an excellent day out with something for all the family. The collection includes exhibitions from across the ages from the age of sail to the modern day. We look forward to sharing the outstanding and unique treasures of the heritage centre.
