200 Years of the Newhaven - Dieppe Line

About

A major French exhibition marking 200 years of the historic sea link with Dieppe. The exhibition showcases unseen archives, collectibles, passenger stories and vintage posters - telling the tale of a crossing central to Newhaven life for generations. 

From early steam liners to modern ferries, visitors can explore two centuries of human and technological adventure. Running alongside a sister exhibition at Newhaven Museum, the show celebrates trade, tourism and friendship across the Channel. 

Presented by Seine-Maritime County Council and Transmanche Ferries. Brought to Newhaven by Lewes District Council and Towner as part of the BN9 Programme.
