Following the success of their 2009 Easter Event ‘Step Back To Wartime Ballymena’, Mid-Antrim Museum have invited The War Years Remembered organisation back to display their vast collection of items showcasing life at the home front and on the battlefields of Europe.

The temporary gallery has been specially designed to help you experience what life was life during the Great War and Second World War. The exhibition will be manned by staff from the War Years Remembered organisation who will be available, during museum opening hours, to answer questions and to talk about the wartime display.
