Cabinz have a 1946 Violin made by a German POW in Anglesey after WW2 in beautifully made of many reused materials


The case is made from wood medical boxes, lined with a felt wool blanket, canvas straps
and hinges made from metal tins  

We are looking into having this restored and possibly displayed in a local museum

A similar Violin made at Braintree PoW camp appeared in a Bbc news story  in 2016
