Explore how industry, innovation and working lives changed Wales inside a museum beside Swansea’s waterfront. The National Waterfront Museum uses machines, objects and personal stories to connect large economic shifts with everyday experience. The galleries show that industrial history is not only a line of inventions. Transport, energy and manufacturing altered communities, landscapes and the choices available to people, creating plenty for different generations to compare. General admission is free. Check current opening, exhibition and event information before travelling. Add this to your list and follow one Welsh invention from an idea to its wider impact.
