Since the First World War, the museum has housed 300 military machines that illustrate crucial engagements from every major conflict. From the mud of the Somme to the beaches of Normandy and the deserts of Iraq, our moving exhibitions explore the tale of this British creation, incorporating powerful anecdotes from the soldiers who fought in them. The world’s first tank, the fearsome German Tiger, and the current Challenger 2 are all part of this one-of-a-kind collection. Tankfest, Tiger Day, the Vintage Christmas Festival and Craft Fayre, as well as unique activity programming during the School Holidays, are all held at The Tank Museum throughout the year.

Bristol
A must-visit destination on the edge of Bristol, the museum is housed in what was once a local brass factory: features from the original garden are still visible, including an unusual 30ft statue of Neptune and an incredible stone grotto.
Inside the museum, expect to discover an amazing array of exhibitions including Roman ruins, a World War Two air raid shelter, an incredible 112-year-old Douglas motorbike used during WW1, and items from the infamous case of John Horwood who was (some say) unfairly hanged in Bristol New Gaol in 1821.
Kingswood Heritage Museum is close to the Bristol to Bath cycle path, and is a great detour if you’re cycling between the two cities.
