Seacombe based Spaceport presents an inspirational journey through space, with several themed galleries featuring a large variety of interactive hands-on exhibits and audio visual experiences. Spaceport is also home to the Wallace & Gromit in Space exhibition which has been designed specifically for Spaceport and includes frequent references to ‘A Grand Day Out’, including the famous orange rocket and the dynamic duo’s picnic site, as well as some fascinating factual information about the Moon, our Solar System and the history of space exploration.
Woodside is home to the U-boat Story, telling the tale of World War II German submarine U-534. The vessel, now in four sections, has glass viewing partitions which reveal its amazing interior and the surprisingly well preserved artefacts, including a rare Enigma machine. The attraction is highly educational with interactive and audiovisual exhibits to help gain a unique insight into life on board a submarine during wartime.
The U-Boat story also includes a life-size replica of the U-534 Conning Tower, allowing visitors the chance to experience standing on the bridge of the historic vessel and using a periscope to view across the River Mersey. For more information on U-boat Story click here
