Museum displays allow visitors, young and old, to explore the history of the building and what it was like to live and work in the fortress.
Laid out in the casemates (rooms) you can see displays of:
-
uniforms
-
medals
-
weapons
-
photographs
-
documents
These chart the proud histories of The Royal Sussex Regiment and the Queen’s Royal Irish Hussars over nearly 300 years.
In contrast the Sussex Combined Services displays demonstrate the county’s strong historical links with the armed forces, particularly focusing on World War II.
