For those of you that are interested in a bit of history, Eden Camp is a great family day out. Located just outside of Whitby, this modern history museum has something for all the family to enjoy.
Below is an extract from the Eden Camp website:
“A visit to our unique Museum at EDEN CAMP will transport you back in time to wartime Britain. You will experience the sights, sounds, even the smells of those dangerous years.
This is no ordinary Museum – Not another Military Museum – Not a glass showcase Museum – We have reconstructed scenes using movement, lighting, sound, smells, even smoke machines to transport you back in time, to make you feel that you are there taking part in history.
Our special award winning Museum is an original Prisoner of War Camp built in 1942. Our fascinating displays hold, and reveal to you, the vital spirit which eventually triumphed in 1945. These superb and lifelike exhibits make a visit to EDEN CAMP a wonderful and educational day out for all the family.”
Having been a visitor on many occassions and can highly recommend the musuem, the kids will love the experience and parents will certainly learn something new.
