The Museum covers over 300 years of military history, telling the stories of the 34th Regiment of Foot, the 55th Regiment of Foot, Border Regiment, King's Own Royal Border Regiment and the current serving Regiment The Duke of Lancaster's.

 

The Museum reinforces the strong links between Cumbria’s regiments and the local community, and shares the remarkable stories of courage, loyalty and service.

 

Our Museum is an important source of information for former soldiers and their families, historians and family history researchers. By reaching out to schools and colleges, we keep the memories alive for future generations.
