Heritage Open Days Soldiers of Gloucestershire Museum

September 8, 2017 @ 10:00 am - 4:00 pm

Come and discover the lives of Gloucestershire soldiers from the last 300 years.

Try on Army uniforms, walk into a First World War trench, and learn how the weapons and vehicles have changed through history with our digital interactives.

Do you know how the Gloucestershire Regiment won the Back Badge?

How the Royal Gloucestershire Hussars survived fighting in the desert?

Have you felt how heavy a Rifleman’s rucksack is?

With changing exhibitions and our Soldiers of the Month display, there is always something new to see.

There is plenty for the whole family to do, with a brilliant shop and tea room overlooking Gloucester Docks.
