During these informal hourly sessions (Monday – Friday), you will be able to meet our friendly conservation team learn more about their roles and how it benefits this once-in-a-lifetime project to fight the impact of moisture, fungus, and pests threatening HMS Victory.
Every Tuesday and Thursday throughout the summer holidays, our expert shipwrights will show you how caulking works from 11am to 12 noon. This traditional technique uses tar-soaked rope fibers to seal wooden seams—a must-try activity where visitors of all ages can test their shipbuilding skills with wooden mallets and metal tools.
Don’t miss these family-friendly activities:
11am: Meet a Shipwright
2pm: Meet an Archaeologist or Meet a Conservator
Step aboard HMS Victory and be part of an educational adventure that brings history alive! For more details about Victory Live: The Big Repair, visit our website here.
