VIOLETTE SZABO MUSEUM

Violette had meanwhile joined the ATS but following her initial training found that she was pregnant so had to return to London. Her daughter Tania was born on the 8th June 1942 and Violette returned to work, this time in an aircraft factory, while Tania stayed with a minder. It was only three months after Tania's birth that Etienne was killed in action therefore he never saw his daughter which was extremely sad... The Violette Szabo Museum opened its doors in June 2000 and was the brain child of Rosemary Rigby MBE who was Violette's aunt. Many years of fundraising and collecting artefacts from people who knew Violette or served with her during the war came to fruition on that day in June... We provide details about the Violette Szabo Museum such as its history, what you can see and learn there, opening times and other useful information. We also present a few educational articles about Violette Szabo herself who is recognised as one of the bravest women in history.
