点评:Fascinating history of the history of the Filton site. I am not a technical person, I was there as I like local history, so the museum catered for my interest by showing the beginning of the story at the Filton site, and then through the two wars and up to the modern day. There was a lot of emphasis on the people who worked there, including a surprsing amount of women, who often don't mentioned in industrial history.
I booked to do the WW2 in Filton expereince (not included in the admission but only £4 extra) This included a visit to the recently renovated WW2 bomb shelter behind the museum, where we were told about the wartime bombing of the factory. The guide was very knowledgeable and was happy to answer questions.
I have seen comments on here about the restaurant being over-priced, but I thought it was pretty reasonable; I have certainly expereienced more expensive at other heritage attractions. For me it was important that it was good food and clean- and the staff cleared tables quickly.
Concorde itself was an experience- in her own hangar and illuminated, she is the star of the museum. Well worth a visit! My only issue was the walk between the main museum and the Concorde hanger- I managed to walk the wrong way and miss the door. Better signs maybe? Also, it would have been nice to have some exhibits outside along the route, to extend the museum to in between the two buildings as well!
翻译:菲尔顿遗址的历史引人入胜。我并非专业人士,只是因为喜欢当地历史才去参观的。博物馆很好地满足了我的兴趣,展示了菲尔顿遗址的起源,以及两次世界大战直至今日的发展历程。博物馆着重介绍了在那里工作的人们,其中女性的数量之多令人惊讶,而女性在工业史中往往被忽视。
我预订了菲尔顿二战体验之旅(门票不包含,但只需额外支付4英镑)。这包括参观博物馆后方最近翻新的二战防空洞,在那里我们了解了工厂在战争期间遭受轰炸的情况。导游知识渊博,乐于解答问题。
我看到有人评论说餐厅价格过高,但我认为价格相当合理;我在其他历史景点也体验过更贵的餐厅。对我来说,食物美味、环境干净很重要——而且服务员收拾餐桌的速度也很快。
协和式飞机本身就是一次难忘的体验——它停放在自己的机库里,灯光璀璨,是博物馆的明星。非常值得一游!我唯一的问题是主博物馆和协和式飞机机库之间的路——我走错了方向,错过了入口。或许应该设置更清晰的指示牌?另外,如果沿途设置一些户外展品,将博物馆延伸到两栋建筑之间,那就更好了!
