ROCHESTER And

THE ROYAL ENGINEERS MUSEUM 

We start the day with a visit to Rochester before heading to Kent’s largest military museum to discover the story of the Royal Engineers and how they have helped the British Army live, move, and fight for over 300 years. 

With highlights including 25 Victoria Crosses, Wellington’s map of Waterloo, Chard’s weapons from the Zulu War, an amazing collection of bridge laying tanks, Chinese silks, the world’s first guided torpedo, Indian battle axes, a huge piece of the Berlin Wall, Zulu shields, a Harrier Jump Jet and an enormous V2 rocket, it is no surprise that the Museum’s collection has been designated as being of historical and international importance.
