This exhibition traces the history of Malmesbury Twinning Association from its origins in the 1950s. In 1976 the Town Council initiated a formal Civic Twinning with Niebull, Germany which lies close to the Danish border and the North Sea coast. In 2000 a formal twinning agreement was signed with Given, France.
Information on the towns is displayed along with social events through the years. It is also possible to see some many gifts presented to Malmesbury from Niebull and Given. These include some fine examples of Gien ceramics and striking modernist prints of Richard Heitzmann.
