The second pavilion, 'The Calling', reflecting Florence's underlying belief in her call to God's service, recreates the climax of Nightingale's life: her experiences during the Crimean War in the years 1854 to 1856, when she led a Government-sponsored party of nurses to the military hospitals at Scutari on the Asian shore of the Bosphorus, and then to the Crimea itself, and in so doing became a national heroine.
