Explore & experience:

• A visit to National Roman Legion Museum. ​​​Explore the real Roman collections in the gallery and see a Roman garden. Try on replica Roman armour in a reconstructed Barrack Room and see how Roman soldiers lived. Take part in a facilitated workshop with one of our costumed Roman teachers at the museum. 
• A workshop guided by a costumed Roman facilitator.  Through role-play, pupils can be a new recruit in the Roman army, a patient visiting a Roman doctor, a rich master or a slave at a Roman feast, or celebrating a Roman seasonal festival. One topic per term - see details for dates and charges. 
• A visit to the real Roman Baths. Explore how Romans washed and relaxed nearly two thousand years ago. 
• A visit to the outdoor Amphitheatre & Barracks sites. Discover the most complete Amphitheatre in Britain and the only legionary barracks still on view in Europe!

School visits are available Monday – Friday and our school trip schedule runs from 10:15 to 14:15 and includes the use of a lunch space. 

All sessions are self-led except for the facilitated workshop so visiting teaching staff must lead these sessions. Site staff will be present during all sessions apart from the outdoor Amphitheatre & Barracks sites. 

Souvenir bags are available to pre-order. Please inform us when you make a booking if you would like to order.
