Uno de los cruceros más grandes jamás construidos, la única nave de su tipo que sobrevivió habiendo estado activa en la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra de Corea. Lanzado en 1938 HMS Belfast pronto fue comisionado al servicio en 1939 como el mayor crucero a disposición de la Marina Real en aquél momento. Jugó un papel importante en la destrucción del crucero de batalla alemán Scharnhorst y en el desembarco de Normandía. Sirvió a la Armada Real hasta el 1.965, cuando fue salvado por la nación en 1.971 como recordatorio del único patrimonio naval de la Gran Bretaña. Construcción Naval Esta nueva exposición orientada a las familias está formada por una parte práctica, pantallas interactivas y proyecciones que muestran las técnicas de construcción naval y de la época de la navegación a vela hasta métodos de prefabricación modernos. La exposición se centra en la ciencia, la ingeniería y la historia social de la construcción naval en la Gran Bretaña, y los elementos interactivos de la exposición le permitirán que los niños de todas las edades participen en la experiencia. Explore Uno de los cruceros más grandes es el único superviviente después de haber estado de servicio durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Ha servido a la Gran Bretaña durante 32 años, jugó un papel importante en la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra de Corea, y también realizó otras misiones entre los años 50 y 60. Se salvó de ser destruido en 1971, y ahora forma parte del Museo Imperial de la Guerra y es el primer barco preservado por la nación desde Nelson’s Victory. Gracias a los trabajadores y voluntarios – muchos de los cuales son veteranos de la tripulación – el museo se asegura de que HMS Belfast todavía tiene un papel importante que desempeñar en el patrimonio británico marítimo. La historia del HMS Belfast El término “crucero” se remonta a los tiempos en que grandes fragatas podían separarse de la flota oficial para cruzar de forma independiente. El crucero de vela, al igual que su contraparte del siglo XX, fue lo suficientemente potente y rápido para atacar y destruir los enemigos. Durante el siglo XIX, cuando la vela se convirtió en vapor y los barcos de manera fueron reemplazados por los construidos de hierro, y más tarde de acero, el crucero se convirtió en un buque de guerra utilizado para patrullar las rutas comerciales del imperio. Tenga en cuenta: los niños menores de 16 años deberán ir acompañados por un adulto. Duración aproximada de la visita: 1½ - 2 horas

Look down to spy road and pedestrian life whizzing over the Bridge while river vessels sail under it – and plan your visit in advance for the truly magical experience of the bascules being raised beneath your feet. The glass floor measures 11 metres long by 1.8 metres wide and comprises of six panels weighing 530 kilograms each. It is made up of five thick layers and can hold the equivalent weight of an elephant and two taxis! The installation took a 20-strong team to construct it over a six week period. The Walkways also offer stunning panoramic views of London while each of the 20 bridges featured in our popular and refreshed 'New Great Bridges of the World' display showcase a breath-taking feat of engineering. After learning about the history of the Bridge through animations and displays in the Towers, continue to the Victorian Engine Rooms for the beautifully maintained steam engines that were once used to power the bridge lifts. Over 100 years ago, the Victorians built a bridge that has become one of London's most famous landmarks. High level walkways were built to allow people to cross the Thames whilst the Bridge was lifted to let tall ships sail past - Tower Bridge Today these Walkways act as viewing galleries, giving visitors the most spectacular views across an ever changing London skyline. Walkways & Exhibition: Visitors enter Tower Bridge Exhibition via the North Tower. They are then transported by lift to the top of the Tower (47 metres above the Thames) where they have a unique opportunity to see the Bridge’s steel skeleton from within. A short film explains the history and provenance of the Bridge and then there is the chance to admire the spectacular views – from both covered Walkways. On the east Walkway there are fantastic views of the Docklands and from the west Walkway you can see the new GLA building, the Tower of London, St Paul’s, the city, the Pool of London and Big Ben and the London Eye in the distance. Interactive computerised kiosks and graphic panels explain the significance of the views to visitors, as well as providing more information on the history and building of the Bridge. The interactive material and graphic panels are written in seven languages and an audio loop for the hard of hearing is also in place for the video show. There is another film to view in the South Tower before descending for the short walk to the historical Engine Rooms, included in your ticket price. Victorian Engine Rooms: These provide a fascinating insight into late 19th century engineering. Installed for the completion of Tower Bridge in 1894, these huge, and beautifully maintained, coal-driven engines were used to power the thousands of bascule Bridge lifts performed until 1976. Although lifts are now operated by electricity, the original steam engines are still in place. The Engine Rooms give visitors a chance to experiment with models demonstrating the technology behind the Bridge. There are also some amazing photographs of Tower BridgeTthroughout its lifetime – including a revealing picture of the heavy steel structure of the Bridge as the stone cladding was installed over it.
