The National Waterfront Museum in Swansea has reopened for seven days a week.

Amgueddfa Cymru is encouraging visitors to return and share stories of their experiences there this summer on social media using #MyStoryOfWales.

The National Waterfront Museum tells the story of more than 300 years of Welsh industry and innovation using interactive technology. 15 themed galleries cover a different aspect of this crucial period in Wales’ industrial history.

The Museum remains free to enter. However, to keep visitors and staff safe, the museum has had to reduce visitor numbers on site and to manage this, all visitors will need to book a free ticket in advance at museum.wales/swansea/

Visitors are required to wear face coverings in indoor spaces at the Museum in line with Welsh Government guidelines and to follow all safety procedures during their visit.

Steph Mastoris, Head of National Waterfront Museum, said: “Our seven sites, including the National Waterfront Museum, offer an opportunity to experience culture and heritage first-hand, whether that’s seeing a replica steam locomotive up close, watching slate being split, going underground in a coal mine or experiencing a woollen mill in full. The museums offer rich cultural experiences that inspire visitors and we want to hear their stories this summer.

“Since reopening, it’s been incredible to see so many people safely visit our museums and be inspired by the collections and their experiences.”
