Cheshire Military Museum in Castle Square, Chester is running Easter Activities throughout the Spring holidays. This is the first of our special Bank Holiday Openings so do visit.

An Easter Egg Hunt is on this weekend Friday – Monday with a treat for those who spot all the wooden eggs hidden within the museum’s exhibitions. We also have ‘Fun Friday’ craft activities throughout the holidays.

On Friday, 3rd April you can learn about ‘Animal Heroes‘ the brave Cheshire pigeon William who won the Dickin medal, the animal equivalent of the  VC in  World War Two. Then you can design your animal hero to take away.

On Friday, 10th April, craft a pair of fun binoculars and use them to explore the Museum!

On Friday, 17th April we have a ‘Jungle Bugs Make Session’. Take home your very own creepy crawly – not the leeches on display in the new Jungle Warfare exhibition, please!

ADVANCE NOTICE: The Cheshire Pals will be in residence re-enacting Cheshire’s contribution and what was like for those here during WW1 and WW2 at the end of May. More details soon.

No pre-booking is necessary. For more information please e-mail: cheshiremilitarymuseum@outlook.com
