    Interesting exhibitions with a very impressive amount of memorabilia. Located near Clifford’s Tower so it’s in a nice location in the city centre. I enjoyed my visit learning all about Yorkshire’s military history and seeing the uniforms, weaponry and medals. I just wish I did better on the shooting game! 😂

    Knowledgeable staff. Fun expositions. Not only that but the games and questionnaire was super interesting and fun to do. Great date Activity to talk about history with, one of my favorite Museums of York as a tourist from now on, and maybe even in all of England/the world.

    Truely fabulous little museum with some incredible exhibitions, I must mention how amazing the staff there were particularly Jana who made such an effort talking about the displays with both my boys. My eldest has never been as engaged with displays and that's is a credit to her passion and enthusiasm. 5 stars not enough
