Come and find out more about Army Chaplaincy, from the Roman times up to the present time.
The Museum houses the archives and historical relics of the Royal Army Chaplains’ Department. Unlike most military museums, it does not include any weapons or ammunition, since the Chaplains are non-combatants and their work is to sustain not destroy. Using the theme of Faith, the displays explore the role of Army Chaplain in the service of peace, in uniform, in captivity and under fire. Displays include poignant Far East POW items, Church silver and furnishings, uniforms and the stories of the four Chaplains who have been awarded the Victoria Cross.
