NATIONAL ROMAN LEGION MUSEUM

(5.0 Score)
High Street, Caerleon, Newport NP18 1AE, UK Directions

Since 1850

Speciality:

✓ Artefacts ✓ History ✓ Collections ✓ Visits ✓ Learning and Educational Programs ✓ Displays ✓ Events and Talks

“National Roman Legion Museum is inside the fortress and houses many Roman artefacts, including currency and uniforms. In 1850, the first building, known as the Antiquarian Museum, was constructed. This building was listed as Grade II in 1951 but was completely demolished during the museum's reconstruction and expansion in 1987. The National Roman Legion Museum is one of three Roman sites in Caerleon, alongside the Baths Museum and the open-air ruins of the amphitheatre and barracks. The reconstructed building was designed in a modernist style that is featureless and windowless like the original. The National Roman Legion Museum will continue to offer facilities for local schools.

2025 Update: They have a picture library you can search, a library that includes rare books, and a range of information.”

NATIONAL ROMAN LEGION MUSEUM REVIEWS

Free entrance & Free parking available, about 3 min walk from the museum - both for cars & coaches. Really great stuff to see & lots of activities for kids. Can dress up as a Roman soldier, fight with swords (made of soft materials) & see how Roman barracks looked. The garden has an olive tree, along with other things Roman. Really useful if it is a rainy day and any outdoor activities are difficult. Free parking available, about 3 min walk from the museum - both for cars & coaches. Drive past the Priory hotel to find the parking. Might get filled soon on busy days.

It's a nice, informative museum with knowledgeable staff at hand to fill in the gaps...of which there were many. It was walking round the exhibits which included everything from tiles, coins, weapons all the way to even Roman soldiers. Be sure to enquire about their faces and I was also curious about their size too. We enjoyed our foray into the National Roman Legion Museum.

A fantastic museum, particularly for Roman-history enthusiasts -- and fantastic to see that they're providing autism-friendly opening hours.

NEWPORT MUSEUM AND ART GALLERY REVIEWS

A fantastic free museum! I could have spent a few hours in here if i’d had more time. Highly recommended if you’re interested in studio pottery or ceramics as the gallery showcased a huge array, from Wally Keeler to coronation mugs. A visit while in Newport is a must!

The museum is upstairs in the library. So much local history on display, dating back to Roman times and beyond. Fascinating to read about local industries and Newport life. With free entry also.

Great couple of hours out, good for all ages. They even have a sheet that children can fill out, which encourages children to really engage in the educational side of the trip.

WALNUT TREE FARM PARK REVIEWS

Excellent farm park to bring children. There are a variety of animals, apart from cows, goats, sheep and horses there are Guinea pigs, peacocks, alpacas, emu, turtles, Highland cows, reindeer, turkeys and geese. There are play areas in almost every section. Washing stations in every area and a nice picnic area. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable. There's a cafe on site with play area for under 4s. Would love to go again.

Great day out meeting the animals who loved the attention. Real characters whose personalities shone through. Great day out reasonable prices on food and entry. Highly recommended!

What a great farm! Had a great day out with the family, was surprised how good the farm was. A big farm with lots and lots of friendly animals and the staff there are great, you can tell they like working there.
