Description |
|
Eureka
is home to The National
Children's Museum, an interactive
educational museum for children that only
allows adults to enter if accompanied by
children. The museum's Wikipedia
page says that it, "... was
founded in 1985 by Vivien Duffield.
Eureka!'s location was partly inspired
by Prince Charles, who opened the
museum on 9 July 1992 and was its
patron until 2002." "It is located
on former British Rail land next to
Halifax railway station. The
building design was led by Ken Moth
of Building Design Partnership, an
architectural practice, and the
exhibition designs were produced by
an in-house team and by design
groups who pitched for various
elements of the work."
