HALL 1 -10 INVENTIONS THAT CHANGED MANKIND

Our contemporary way of life stands as a testament to the revolutionary innovations of past generations. The Industrial Revolution—a pivotal epoch spanning the 18th and 19th centuries—redefined Western society and fundamentally transformed the trajectory of human civilisation.

​

This exhibition presents rare artefacts dating to the 1850s onwards, featuring significant inventions that reimagined human life. This exhibit will showcase early gramophones, telephones, clocks, typewriters and many more. These were not merely tools, but revolutionary inventions that reshaped social structures, work patterns, and cultural norms, which laid the foundation for contemporary life as we know it.

​

Here, we invite you to engage with these transformative objects—once the cutting-edge technologies of their day, now historical touchstones. Their legacy persists not merely in their original function or cultural context but in their timeless capacity to illuminate our shared journey through innovation.
