The Guards Museum

About the venue

Entered from Birdcage Walk, this small museum is under the parade ground of Wellington Barracks.

This is the headquarters of British Army's five Guards regiments: the Grenadier Guards, Coldstream Guards, Scots Guards, Irish Guards and Welsh Guards.. The museum, opened in 1988, has uniforms, medals and oil paintings on display, accompanied by martial music. There are also displays and dioramas depicting the battles which the Guards have been involved in, from the English Civil War to the present day. A collection of curios illustrates the life of the ordinary guardsman through the years, guests also have the opportunity to hold a Victoria Cross. The venue is now available for dinners, product launches and receptions and is ideal for corporate events and conferences.
