WW2: Rye’s Story

Experience a new, unforgettable way to connect with history and immerse yourself in the stories of a Rye during a world-shaking era. This 35-minute projection mapping show transforms the iconic Rye Town Model into a living canvas, bringing the WWII-era town to life with scenes of resilience, bravery, and the everyday lives of those who called Rye home.

This new show uses cutting-edge projection mapping technology to take you back to the 1940s, right into the heart of wartime Rye. As lights and images dance across the meticulously detailed town model, it’s as though you’re witnessing the sights, sounds and now smells of Rye during one of history’s most challenging times.

From the poignant experiences of civilians enduring blackouts, bombings and air raid sirens to the acts of courage that highlighted the town’s resilience, each scene is brought to life in stunning detail. You’ll see buildings light up, streets take on a new life, and the quiet heroism of Rye’s people play out before your eyes. It’s not just an attraction; it’s a powerful reminder of the strength of a community in the face of adversity.
