YORK Explore Library will tweet a minute-by-minute account of the air raid which severely damaged the Guildhall on its 70th anniversary.
On April 29, the library will commemorate the Baedeker Blitz from its Twitter account @YorkLibrariesUK.
There will also be display of historic documents, artefacts and books telling the story of the bombs as they fell and the courageous response of York’s people through photographs, maps, newspapers and the diaries of the city’s Air Raid Precaution (ARP) service.
