The Historic Dockyard is a remarkable place that celebrates Great Britain’s magnificent maritime past and its command of the oceans from the heyday of the age of sail and beyond. It’s a place of fun and fascination. Of suprising discoveries. Of stirring tales of boldness and daring.

Set in an impressive 80 acre complex, The Dockyard provides a rich, authentic and varied learning environment, ideal for learners of all ages. It offers unrivalled opportunities to explore ships that helped shape the world and the stories of the people who built them. It’s packed with enormous historic buildings that ignite the imagination and galleries full of fascinating artefacts and stories. There is an inspiring programme of three additional exhibitions every year.
