Victory in Europe: 80th Anniversary Exhibition
This year, step into Bodmin Jail’s joint exhibition in collaboration with Bodmin Keep as we reflect on our local history and involvement in the Second World War.
Explore a powerful collection of wartime artefacts and stories that bring this pivotal moment in history to life. We invite families to engage with the past, learn about the lives affected by the conflict, and remember those who gave their lives so that we may live in freedom.

EXPLORE OUR EXHIBIT
From May 15th - 11th November, step back into Bodmin Jail’s more recent past with our brand-new exhibition: Victory in Europe. This special installation offers a compelling look at the jail’s connections to the Second World War, as we reflect on the lives impacted by conflict and the resilience of those who served.

DISCOVER THE JAIL'S INVOLVEMENT IN WWII
Included with self-guided entry, this thought-provoking and educational exhibition is perfect for curious minds of all ages. Whether you're a history enthusiast or discovering Bodmin Jail for the first time, there's something for everyone to explore.
Join us as we commemorate 80 years since Victory in Europe. Stay tuned for updates as we honour the past throughout the summer and into the autumn at Bodmin Jail.
