Admission to the museum

Derby House was a key operational hub during World War Two. Where once you had to sign the Official Secrets Act to enter, now you just need a smartphone ticket!

This labyrinthine bunker, once the nerve-centre for the war-defining Battle of the Atlantic, is just as it was in 1945. Now home to the Western Approaches Museum, it's a time-capsule hidden beneath Liverpool City Centre.

See original documents, tools, and maps used to analyse the enemy, plus one of two surviving phones that had a direct line to Churchill's War Rooms!

Unfortunately when we arrived at the museum it was closed due to a gas leak, we were unable to gain access and had to go home.

Wonderful experience. I found it a bit emotional at times but also very proud of what my home city done during the war. I took my grandchildren ages 9-12. And they loved it I would recommend this...
