Hampshire is just an hour from London and its excellent transport links make it an easy destination to reach, whether you are travelling by road, rail or air. Given its location is it often the preferred choice of area to live for people commuting into London. Hampshire is a vibrant county with a rich tapestry of history and culture with an abundance of exciting sites to see and places to visit.
As an island Nation, the sea has always played a major role in Britain’s history.
Founded in 1911, the Royal Naval Museum is one of country’s leading maritime museums and is the only museum devoted to the ships of the Royal Navy and the men and women who served in them. Visitors can see, touch, hear and even smell the history of the Royal Navy through a rich collection of artefacts and award-winning permanent exhibitions.
The Trafalgar Experience brings the Battle of Trafalgar vividly to life and The Nelson Gallery features one of the best collections of Nelson material in the world. The galleries devoted to the 20th century Navy focus on the changing face of the senior service from the launch of the Dreadnought to the Falklands War.
Sea Your History is a special exhibition focusing on the real experiences of the Navy’s people - in combat and under stress, doing their day-to-day work, at rest and play, at home and abroad, at sea and on land - during a century of almost continuous conflict and rapid technological and social change.
The exhibition will include colourful, surprising and often touchingly intimate items of both official and personal material selected from the collections of the Royal Naval Museum, the Fleet Air Arm Museum, the Royal Marines Museum and the Royal Navy Submarine Museum.
