The Armouries Day is a unique opportunity not found in any other course training in the UK, allowing access to the Royal Armouries' extensie archive to get hands on information, and deep dive into the weapon you'll be studying.
The day is optional (and free!), but highly recommended. You will have access to the Library and manuscripts, and guidance from the interpretation team.
Should you wish to attend the Archive tour (limited to 10 spaces), there is an added ticket cost of £30.00. Payable on the day or in advance.
