Throughout 2006, Brunel 200 led the celebrations marking the 200th anniversary of the birth of Isambard Kingdom Brunel, one of the most versatile, audacious and inspirational engineers of the nineteenth century.

Brunel 200 provided an exciting and wide-ranging programme of exhibitions, learning programmes, publications, walks and trails, arts projects, competitions, debates, media programmes and talks that commemorated Brunel’s life, times and legacy and inspired the Brunels of the future.

Brunel 200 officially ended in September 2006, although some projects continued to the end of the year including the exhibitions The End of the Line at the Royal Cornwall Museum and The Forces That Made Brunel at Explore-At-Bristol, the erection of the Dawlish to the Warren Coastal Footpath History Boards and the erection of new interpretation boards at the Holburne Museum, Bath.

Although the news, events and resources information on this website will no longer be updated, the background material contained on Brunel, his work and the industrial age will continue to be of value, and the archived news releases and calendars of Brunel 200 events will provide a wonderful souvenir of a great year. The Brunel 200 Legacy website provides extensive details of all the arts projects, exhibitions and other events and activities that took place in 2006. The site includes fabulous photographs along with feedback from those who have taken part, downloadable documents and video footage.
