The smell of steam-age grease, the creek of merchant sails and the flow of black gold ~coal; the tang of iron and the forged words and memories of renowned industrialists as well as the very ordinary heroes who spearheaded the industrial age. This is what you’ll discover at The National Waterfront Museum. Our collection forms a tapestry of stories of the pioneers of the coal shafts, the merchant explorers of the sea and the warriors of the foundries and their families. Echoes of their lives, the sweat and toil and innovation, resound around the galleries, along with a sense of the community spirit that burned bright through good times and the dark days of industrial tragedy. We also celebrate modern and contemporary industrial entrepreneurs, inventors and inventions, from microchips to prosthetic limbs, sustainable vehicles to Lego. Come and discover how Wales once powered the world, and how today we play an important part in renewing it through innovation.
