We absolutely loved the exhibition about the moon because it was very interesting and we learned a lot and it was very interactive for any age. The ground floor exhibition about the history of the area, was interesting as well but not as interactive, but we definitely learned a lot. I would really recommend this museum to anyone.
Loved the friendly service from the staff. Great displays too! Loved learning Nelson’s history. Thank you ?
I was surprised by how much content was on display for what I would call just a symbolic price. I totally recomend it if you have an hour or two and are in a vicinity.
It was something different and interesting.
