From Pirate to Peacekeeper! Find out why the Jolly Roger is the battle ensign of the Royal Navy Submarine Service at this great-value award winning Museum which tells the story of our submariners, who in 1901 were disdained as smelly ‘unwashed chauffeurs’ in their tiny Holland-class boats, but are today custodians of Britain’s national nuclear deterrent in their massive Vanguard-class submarines. Through a mix of a guided tour of a WWII submarine by an experienced submariner, exhibits of historic submarines through the ages, hands-on interactives, periscopes and weapons, and areas that recognise their courage and sacrifice during peace and war, visitors of all ages will get a taste of life beneath the waves with these extraordinary men. There is even a yellow submarine to play in that will excite our youngest visitors!
