About Steel Town Tales
Supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, Steel Town Tales is an exciting heritage project focused on uncovering the rich history of steel production in Corby. It spans from early Viking settlers in the 9th century to the peak success of steel making in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and continues through to ongoing production today.
Steel Town Tales will bring the town's history to life with an immersive co-location Virtual Reality (VR) Experience, premiering at the Savoy Cinema from 20th July - 18th August 2024.
