National Waterfront Museum

Throughout the Industrial Revolution Wales and her people influenced the rest of the world. How we live today is a result of the choices we made then.
At the National Waterfront Museum you can be plunged into poverty, wallow in wealth, dabble with danger or even risk your health! Experience noise, grime, high finance, upheaval, consumerism and opportunity. Be exploited! Watch as families cope under pressure.

Wales was one of the earliest and most heavily industrialised nations on earth. We reaped the benefits, but we suffered the consequences.
A visit to the National Waterfront Museum will be unlike any visit you've ever made to any museum. Ever.
