The Southampton Hackney Association are very proud of our city and what it has to offer! Southampton has a rich and interesting history which can be discovered through its many historical buildings, museums and attractions. Just a short walk or drive around the city and you will see the Medieval City Walls, Tudor House, Old Town and Bargate.

Southampton's monumental Civic Centre is a grade II listed building that was built in the early 1930's. It currently houses the SeaCity museum as well as the city's library, art gallery, guildhall and council offices. It is easily recognised by the iconic clock tower which was designed to be seen from all areas of the city.

Did you know that you can climb the clock tower with a Clock Tower Tour? A walk of 200 steps will take you to the top for views across the city and the chance to learn more about the tower's fascinating history.

The newest addition to the Civic Centre, the SeaCity Museum is also well worth a visit! Interactive displays suitable for all ages offer an insight into the maritime history of the city. The Museum tells the tales of the many people who visited the port throughout history including those on the Titanic which sailed from Southampton in 1912.
