One of the most powerful large light cruisers ever built, HMS Belfast is now the only surviving vessel of her type to have seen active service during the Second World War. HMS Belfast played a leading part in the destruction of the battle cruiser Scharnhorst, and also the Normandy Landings. In service with the Royal Navy until 1965, she was saved for the nation in 1971 as a unique reminder of Britain’s naval heritage. Launch! Shipbuilding Through the Ages This new family-orientated exhibition will use hands-on and computerised interactive displays and engaging film and footage to demonstrate techniques of shipbuilding, from the ‘age of sail’ to modern prefabrication methods. The exhibition will focus on the science, engineering and social history of shipbuilding in Great Britain, and the interactive elements of the exhibition will allow children of all ages to get involved and experience this history. Explore ‘What shall we give in return for so much?’ One of the most powerful large light cruisers ever built, HMS Belfast is now the only surviving vessel of her type to have seen active service during the Second World War. Serving Britain for 32 years, she played an important role in both the Second World War and the Korean War as well as performing peacekeeping duties throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Saved from destruction in 1971, HMS Belfast is now part of the Imperial War Museum and is the first ship to be preserved for the nation since Nelson’s Victory. Through its team of staff and volunteers – many of whom are veteran crew – the Imperial War Museum is dedicated to making sure that HMS Belfast still has a role to play in reminding visitors of her unique place in Britain’s maritime heritage. History of HMS Belfast The term 'cruiser' goes back to the days of sailing ships when large frigates could be detached from the main fleet to cruise independently. The sailing cruiser, like her twentieth-century counterpart, was sufficiently powerful and fast to attack and destroy enemy commerce raiders. During the nineteenth century when sail gave way to steam and wooden ships were replaced by those built of iron, and later of steel, the cruiser evolved into a powerful warship which was used to patrol the Empire trade routes and protect friendly merchant shipping. After the First World War (1914-1918) a single category of cruiser emerged whose size was indicated by the size of its guns; thus, HMS Belfast is a 6-inch cruiser, designed for the protection of trade, for offensive action, and as a powerful support for amphibious operations. Please note: children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Please allow 1½ - 2 hours for your visit.

Verpassen Sie nicht den Park Güell: Hier ist Staunen garantiert! Dieses architektonische Wunderwerk wurde von Antoni Gaudí inmitten der Natur geschaffen und von Graf Güell in Auftrag gegeben. Dieser wollte in ihm ein elegantes Anwesen mit Einfamilienhäusern errichten. Heute ist es ein öffentlicher Park und gehört zum Erbe der Stadt. Es wurde zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe erklärt. Wenn Sie zum Park Güell gehen, sollten Sie die große Treppe betreten, die von einem mit Keramikmosaik verzierten Drachen dominiert wird, dem katalanischen Stil, der als "Trencadís" bekannt ist. Dieser Drache ist eines der charakteristischsten Bilder Barcelonas. Ursprünglich ist der Park um einen großen zentralen Platz herum angeordnet, der von schlanken Bänken begrenzt wird. Unterhalb des Platzes wird das Dach von 86 dorischen Säulen wie Bäumen mit dazwischen liegenden Pfaden und Viadukten auf geneigten Säulen gestützt: Gaudís Arbeit vereint wie keine andere Natur und Architektur.
