Childhood in War is a free, interactive exhibition exploring how children have experienced conflict from 1914 to the present day. Let their unique perspective show you their adaptability and resilience, despite extraordinary and challenging circumstances.
Bring history to life as you step inside recreations of an evacuee train carriage and a Cold War-era kitchen, offering a glimpse into everyday life during times of conflict. Through personal stories, immersive displays and hands-on discovery, you can explore how war affects everything from school and play to home and health. Young visitors can also enjoy a literary trail inspired by much-loved children’s books.
This free exhibition can be enjoyed by both adults and children, and is recommended for those 8+, with younger children also welcome to explore.
