Absolutely amazing museum to visit, number of artifices with information. The sword demonstration was really fun it was enjoyable, no entrance fee which makes it’s a great out day for anyone. Easy to access, loads to see very helpful staff and volunteers, interesting military history. Totally worth spending time every minute. Fantastic museum. If you spend time hour or day definitely you will find a lot of new things and findings. If you come to Leeds, highly recommended to come to this museum , Huge and loads of hidden gem. I loved the more laid back vibe of Leeds and had some amazing food. If you are in the area you really have got to stop by the royal armories they have so many amazing artifacts and one can easily spend 4–5 hours here seeing all the exhibits. Admission is free which is a plus and I have wanted to go for years after seeing the YouTube videos by the museum's curators. It was pretty quiet on the weekday we visited on. 5 floors of armouries items, there's live talks and demos as well. Superbly presented museum with a wide variety of arms and armour, well displayed in context. love it.

If you love military history this is the place to visit! There are arms, armour and so much more from the Romans to modern day. The museum has 5 floors, they do live sword fighting in the museum, they do regular lance couching tournaments outside the museum and the inside is packed to the roof with incredible exhibits from nearly 4.000 years of warfare. You can even shoot a crossbow! The displays are amazing and you should really spend a whole day here. The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable and best of all: It's free of charge!!!

An amazing museum which was free to get in. There is so much to see. A nice flow through the different ages of history as you walk through the museum taking you up to more modern times, Evan a section on films as well. There were demonstrations of various things throughout the day which adds to the experience. The cafe had really nice food and drinks as well. The Eton Mess was amazing. The shop was well stocked with plenty of different things.
