— The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (@KensingtonRoyal) May 14, 2019The Duchess of Cambridge visited Bletchley Park on May 14th, to view a special D-Day exhibition in the newly restored Teleprinter Building, marking the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings. She viewed the interactive exhibition and met with those who worked together to deliver the restoration of the building, then meeting schoolchildren taking part in one of Bletchley Park Trust’s learning activities. During the visit, the Duchess met with veteran codebreakers who worked at Bletchley alongside her grandmother Valerie Glassborow, and her twin sister Mary, during the Second World War.
