The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers

Story

The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers Museum is situated on the first floor of St John's House in Warwick, England. Warwickshire County Council have a museum on the ground floor. The building was originally bought jointly and both museums were opened on 2 August 1961 by Field Marshal Montgomery. The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers Museum was reopened by his son following a major redispay with the help of the Heritage Lottery Fund.The museum tells the history of the County infantry Regiment. This includes the present Regiment, the Royal Regiment of Fusiliers and the antecedent Regiments going down the line of the Royal Warwickshire Fusiliers .The collection consists of about 15,000 objects, which are displayed in five rooms with some additional items in storage. One of the rooms in the museum contains most of the medals.The museum is an Accredited museum, a registered charity, governed by a group of trustees, and is supported by the Ministry of Defence. The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers was created in 1968 after the amalgamation of four Regiments. Thus the museum in Warwick is part of a family of other Fusilier museums; the Royal Northumberland Fusiliers in Alnwick Castle, the Lancashire Fusiliers in Bury and the Royal Fusiliers at the Tower of London.
