The museum collection contains over 33,000 wonderful objects, and we acquire more each year. It is comprised of many different items such as uniforms, medals, artwork, letters and more. These artefacts enables us to tell the story of The Royal Welsh regiment and its illustrious antecedent units in great detail.
A high percentage of the museum collection is on display at any one time, and we find our visitors often come back as there is always more to see!
