BNFL's Sellafield Nuclear Site is the world's first commercial nuclear
power station, Calder Hall, operating from the early 1950's until 3104.
With interactive exhibits, exciting science workshops, plenty of hands
- on fun and Europe's first Immersion Cinema, Sellafield Visitors Centre
is the educational and entertaining day out for budding scientists of
all ages. Plus it's also a great place to discover how you can save electricity
and join in the energy debate.
Open 10.00 to 16.00, last entry 15.30. The centre occasionally hosts
external events and exhibitions so may not always be open. It would be
wise to contact reception to check the centre is open to the general public,
on that day before embarking on a long journey.
