Francis Drake in America

This exhibition exploring Sir Francis Drake’s landing in America takes place on the Golden Hinde II – a full-size reconstruction of Drake’s sixteenth-century flagship fleshed out by ‘crew’ in Elizabethan costume. The history of the landing, the experience of Drake’s voyage and the myths and legends which surround his legacy will all be covered through artefacts. The exhibition is part of Golden Hinde Trust’s fortieth anniversary celebrations.
