Discover Wales’ Temple of Peace & Health, the nation’s memorial to the fallen of WW1 and centre to peacebuilding efforts spanning a century.
About this Event

Wales’ Temple of Peace and Health was built as the Welsh nation’s memorial to the fallen of World War 1, and a headquarters for Welsh efforts to advance peace, health and international relations for future generations. The founders envisioned a building ‘for the people’: a 'peace building for peacebuilding', architecturally steeped in symbolism with an award-winning art deco modernist style, that would inspire movements of Welsh men and women to rid the world of the twin scourges of disease and war. Since its opening in 1938, the Temple has been at the heart of Welsh efforts to build a better world: from the NHS to the United Nations, bodies have been born here and global campaigns catalysed.

Explore this iconic space, and discover many hidden histories from Wales’ rich ‘Peace Heritage’ , by joining this guided tour with WCIA's heritage team.

Some Temple Tours also offer the opportunity for research and volunteering drop-in sessions before or after in the Temple Archives (please email us for any requirements via [email protected]).
