The Royal Norfolk Regimental Museum:

A Resource for Students in Norwich

The Royal Norfolk Regimental Museum has a diverse collection which we are committed to making as accessible as possible to the student population in Norwich and beyond. It can be used in many different and imaginative ways.

We have displays at Norwich Castle Museum & Art Gallery, it is free to UEA, NUA, ACC Norwich and City College students. This is not only for the museum displays in the Castle, but also for research visits to the Shirehall Study Centre where the reserve collection is held.
