Step back in time and get hands-on at our WW1 trench periscope-making workshop!

Discover how these clever devices were used to help soldiers in the First World War to see over trench walls without being spotted by the enemy, before having a go at making your own to take home and try in our trench! 

Unfortunately, the museum remains closed to visitors.

All events will take place in the grounds of Bodmin Keep under cover in The DCLI, SCLI, LI and The Rifles Association marquee.
