Clydebuilt' is Braehead's very own Maritime Heritage Centre. This fascinating attraction takes you on a journey through 300-years in the life of the world famous river. From the early days of the Glasgow tobacco lords, through to its shipbuilding heyday, and right up to the present day, Clydebuilt brings history to life. While you're there, try your hand as a 17th century trader, load your own cargo and have a go at piloting a Clyde ship in our interactive display. And don't forget to visit MV Kyles; the oldest Clyde built ship still afloat in the UK - now permanently moored on the River Clyde at Braehead.
The Clyde's Navy
Discover the history of the Navy on the Clyde in this dramatic interactive, audio-visual exhibition. Learn how they build ultimate warships and discover the world of Royal Navy ships and submarines. Plus, you can explore behind the scenes at HM Naval Base Clyde, and find out about the people who live and work there, and why they are important to us today.
This is your chance to find out the answers to questions such as:
• How has shipbuilding changed in the computer age?
• Who were the real life X-men?
• How do submarines navigate under water?
• Why are some ships made of plastic?
Clydebuilt is situated on the boardwalk, near Marks & Spencers.
