Britain At War Experience

Britain at War 1939-1945

Dame Vera Lynn couldn't believe her eyes when she visited Britain At War. She said, "I thought I was back in the war - it was unbelievable." All children should visit this nostalgic and moving experience to see what it was really like for the ordinary people during World War Two".

Britain At War is more than just a tourist attraction, it's a unique trip down memory lane for those who lived through those bitter-sweet days and is an educational must for all those too young to remember.

You are there inside a bombed out department store while screaming shells rain all round you. Searchlights fill up the night sky while ack-ack guns fire on the enemy aircraft overhead. Pick your way through the smouldering rubble to the main street and see the remains of the cinema, pub and people's homes. The wail of the air raid siren mingles with the noise and confusion of the rescuers, while firefighters tackle the raging blaze and carry a girl to safety. You may be able to escape past the burst water main but wait.. you have to pass an unexploded bomb which could go off at any second!

Take the lift to the London Underground air raid shelter and see where thousands spent sleepless nights.
