Tour: Wellington Hall Museum - Chelsea History Festival

Wellington Hall Museum Tour - Chelsea History Festival

Led by one of our expert Chelsea Pensioner Museum Guides, this intimate tour offers a unique perspective on centuries of military tradition, personal stories, and national heritage. This is a truly unique experience; a chance to see remarkable artefacts up close and learn directly from those who have lived the military tradition themselves. 

Please note: This tour is not part of the free Exhibition in the Soane Stable Yard. It offers access to a different, privately held museum not normally open to the public.
 

A group of Chelsea Pensioners stand in front of a wooden panelled wall, wearing their iconic scarlet uniforms with black Shako Hat emblazoned with gold "RH" lettering. The Pensioner in the centre has a long white beard and is highly decorated with almost a dozen medals.
