Green Howards Museum has re-opened

The Museum's been closed for winter maintenance, and re-opened to visitors on Monday 5 February.

The current special exhibition is Great Escapes, which runs until 20 April; the exhibition looks at the plight of captured soldiers during WWII, and highlights how luck, courage and the kindness of strangers could affect their fate if they were determined to be free. Entry is included in the price of Museum admission.

Later in the year a new exhibition will mark the 80th anniversary of the Normandy Campaign in 1944.

The Museum offers fascinating insights into Yorkshire's celebrated 'Green Howards' regiment and into Richmond's history as a military town. Details and tickets are at greenhowards.org.uk.
