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.

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
