Situated on the historic site of Peninsula Barracks, next to the Great Hall, no visit to Winchester would be complete without visiting Winchester's Military Museums!

A unique site with six military museums, there is plenty to see and do and with the delightful Copper Joe's Café located on-site, this is the perfect day out for all the family.

After much anticipation, the Winchester's Military Museums joint ticket is now available to purchase! The ticket allows you one visit to HorsePower, The Museum of The King's Royal Hussars; The Royal Green Jackets (Rifles) Museum and The Gurkha Museum.

The joint ticket costs £8 and will save you £2 on the cost of admission overall. Tickets can be purchased from The Royal Green Jackets (Rifles) Museum.

Also on-site and free of charge are The Royal Hampshire Regiment Museum; The Rifles Collection and The Museum of The Adjutant General Corps.

That's six military museums to visit in the beautiful settings of Peninsula Square. Make sure to come and visit us this summer!

For much of Jane Austen’s adult life, Britain was at war with France. Soldiers in their red coats were a familiar sight in southern England. Three of Jane’s brothers spent time in the army, and all her novels feature military characters. This exhibition provides the military context for characters such as Wickham, Colonel Brandon and General Tilney.
