We are located in Brecon town centre, a thriving town set in the heart of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Within touching distance of the beautiful Brecon and Monmouthshire canal, Brecon Cathedral and the new cultural centre Y Gaer.
The Museum building forms part of the wider Brecon barracks and has it’s own entrance just a few metres further along from the Barracks entrance on the Watton.
The museum does not have its own car park, this is due to the building being part of the Brecon military barracks.
However, there are many options for parking. In front of the museum there are free spaces, or you have the option of The Watton long stay car park, which is a 5 minute walk away.
