Nelson & Norfolk, an exhibition of Admiral Lord Nelson, opens at Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery on 29 July until 1 October.
The exhibition presents some of the most extraordinary and potent objects connected to Nelson, from his boyhood in Norfolk to his death at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
The exhibition is timely in that coincides with the 200th anniversary of the laying of the foundation stone of the Nelson memorial in Great Yarmouth, the county’s most significant memorial to its local hero.
