Visitors can explore thousands of incredible objects, from ancient times to the present day. From Japanese samurai to iconic movie props, from Henry VIII’s armour to an Indian war elephant.
Visitors can watch history come to life with free, daily live shows and combat demonstrations. These shows provide a glimpse into how our collection has shaped history, society, art, and culture.
Advance booking online is recommended to guarantee entry, particularly at weekends and during the school holidays. However, drop-in visits are also welcome, especially during quieter times like weekdays and after 2pm.
Young people aged 15 and under must be accompanied by a responsible adult at all times when visiting the museum.
Visitors can sign up to receive information about the latest news, events, stories about the collection, shop offers, and ways to support the museum. This allows them to stay connected and informed about everything happening at the museum.
