National Museum of Wales: is a imposing structure featuring an eclectic range of exhibits ranging from art to science. Located at the Cardiff Civic Centre, you’ll find collections here that deal with area archaeology, geology, industry and natural science; as well as extensive collections of china, glass and silver, dating back as far as the mid-13th century. The museum focuses on tracing the history of development in Wales in art and science, but also features works of art from world-famous painters and sculptors. The high ceilings and wonderful light in the museum’s interior create a wonderful space and atmosphere for viewing its many collections and exhibits. National Roman Legion Museum: around 2,000 years ago, Rome dominated a great deal of the civilised world and Wales was its western-most outpost. A fortress was established in AD 75 at Caerleon that stood guard over the region for two centuries. This museum allows visitors to see just how formidable a force the Romans of the time were, through various collections of objects from their daily life. Special events are organised for school children on weekends and school holidays, allowing them to experience what it might have been like to live during Roman times. They can visit reconstructed barracks rooms and even try on a soldier’s armour. Caerleon was established as one of only three permanent fortresses by the Romans in Britain. |
