About the exhibition

From the watery depths! Discover these stories of extraordinary shipwrecks, revealed in incredible LEGO® model detail.

Ryan “The Brickman” McNaught, working with expert maritime archaeologists, brings to life these astonishing shipwrecks and their stories in this immersive exhibition.

Featuring large-scale LEGO® models of ships such as Western Australia’s famous Batavia, the “unsinkable” Titanic, the highly decorated Vasa and the ill-fated Terror and Erebus. Come and uncover the stories of the voyages, life aboard the ships, their watery demise and the shipwreck detectives who locate and document the wrecks.
