About

Take a deep dive into the intriguing mystery behind the ill-fated Franklin Expedition, which saw Sir John Franklin's two ships, the HMS Erebus and the HMS Terror, vanish 160 years ago on a much-heralded Arctic expedition. ROM's new pop up display, The Franklin Expedition: The Bell Tolls Again, features a stunning 3-D printed replica of the bell recovered from the HMS Erebus, showcasing how modern technology is used to tell this historic and compelling tale. 

Join us on a journey to the past and explore one of Canada's greatest mysteries!
