Exhibition designer Sarner has installed a new Gun Turret Experience at HMS Belfast where visitors can revive the battle of the North Cape at 1943.

In small groups of 15-20, visitors can step into the Gun Turret and recreate its atmosphere and conditions using lights, imagery, sound, smoke effects, movements and smells.

The space recreates the sensations of war at sea and offers visitors a new way to understand the extraordinary experiences of the sailors who served on HMS Belfast within a live action atmosphere.

Phil Reed, Director of HMS Belfast says: "The Gun Turret Experience gives visitors an exhilarating new perspective on life at sea and really enhances the ship's historic surroundings."
