Get ready for a fun-filled June at the Valiant Soldier Heritage Centre! We're hosting a variety of events and activities that promise to bring history to life and make this month memorable.
Roaring Twenties Evening: Join us on 21st June for an evening at the Valiant Soldier Speakeasy Bar. Enjoy a cocktail or a local cider/beer and be transported back to the 1920s. We're open from 6pm to 10pm and look forward to seeing you there!
Exhibition: Buckfastleigh 100 Years Ago
We're participating in the 'Festival of Devon in the 1920s' with an exhibition that recreates Buckfastleigh from a century ago. Curated by our Archive team, it's an intriguing glimpse into the past.
We're open Tuesdays to Saturdays, 10am to 3.30pm (last entry at 3pm) until the end of October. Sundays and Bank Holidays will be added from late July through August. Don't forget our woolly sheep quiz for the little ones. TQ11 residents enjoy free entry!
