2025 EXHIBITION OPEN

This year's Exhibition - "Codes, Secrets and Communication" - was formally opened by Saltash Mayor Councillor Julia Peggs on Saturday 5th April. The exhibition runs until December during our normal opening times (see Opening hours). We have examples of old telephones, morse keys, a Braille machine and many other fascinating items.Mayor Julia Peggs and Saltash Heritage Chairman Brian Stoyel open the exhibition

We have been donated letters home from a World War II Prisoner of War, which contained secret messages. They were never cracked by the enemy (as far as we know), and even his parents didn't know there were hidden messages in the letters they were receiving that had been intercepted by the British secret service. Can you crack the code? We even have a replica Enigma coding machine made by a Saltash Heritage volunteer!

Come and try to decode what's written on the blackboard - all the answers are dotted around the display!
