A Window to Felixstowe's Past

Heritage Open Day: A display of historic pictures displayed in Felixstowe shops showing how they looked in the past. Step back in time with this special Heritage Open Days display, curated by The Felixstowe Society.

Historic photographs of shops and businesses from Felixstowe’s past will be displayed in shop windows along the town’s shopping streets, showing what those same premises looked like in earlier days. Each image offers a fascinating glimpse of local life, familiar streets, changing shopfronts, and the people and businesses that helped shape Felixstowe’s town centre.

The display can be enjoyed at your own pace as you walk through Felixstowe, making it an accessible and engaging way to discover the town’s heritage in the very places where history happened.
