Swansea museum visited by thousands of children left homeless and won't open in 2022

A popular Swansea museum which has been visited by thousands of locals and tourists over the years is unlikely to open in 2022, staff have confirmed. The 1940s Swansea Bay Museum, which displays artefacts from the 1941 bombing raid of the city during the Second World War and other items from the era, is understood to have lost its premises near Bay Field Hospital.

Management told WalesOnline that staff were on the hunt for new premises and hoped to have an update on a new site later in the year. But it's understood that it's "unlikely" the museum will be welcoming anyone in 2022.

A post has also appeared on social media suggesting that "anyone who donated items to the museum and would like them back" should contact the museum's owner. You can get more Swansea news and other story updates by subscribing to our newsletters here.
