When I visited there it was fascinating and a bit scary to sit in an air raid shelter which is one of the exhibits. The sound effects were excellent and I felt as though I were sitting in the dark during an air raid. Gives a person a different perspective to be sure. At any rate, Swansea was pretty badly hit during WWII by German bombers and it's really surprising when you see the photos of what the city looked like after the air raids.
