Overview
On now Permanent access
Western Approaches Museum is a permanent display in a Second World War bunker beneath Liverpool city centre, housed in Derby House. It is presented as a preserved underground site.
Derby House served as an operational centre during the Second World War and was the nerve centre for the Battle of the Atlantic. The underground complex is presented as it was in 1945, with a labyrinth of rooms that visitors walk through at their own pace.
The displays include original documents, tools and maps that were used to analyse enemy activity. Among the objects is one of two surviving telephones that had a direct line to Churchill's War Rooms in London.
The museum suits visitors interested in wartime history, the Battle of the Atlantic and the workings of military command. It is a permanent display, and the site runs as a museum within the bunker itself.
