The Fusilier Museum

“I love the military museums, so today, I went to Bury. This is home to the Fusiliers Museum. A fantastic welcome from the member of staff on the desk. He spoke to my husband and our pal while I browsed the gift shop looking for a magnet. Please, guys, you need to get some with the name of the museum on 😊 Well, what a collection and what a building! Everything was spaced out nicely, no clutter that you find with these types of museums. Well done 👏 So much history to read and look at. I am so glad we went today, with being Easter weekend, it was quiet. We more or less had the place to ourselves, so we could take our time looking around. Once we had finished, we popped to Olive's for a coffee. The cafe is situated in the museum. Disabled access to each floor via a lift. Toilets are spotless, too. Please go and visit and take a walk around the well maintained garden of remembrance.”

“Been taking my elder 2 kids over the years -now starting all over with my younger one..not gone inside due to closing time but will definitely come and have a look and have a good tour into history and man.. We do love passing by and just sitting down for a while and taking a breather!! A great garden of peace!! Me and my little boy finally went, a great tour, thoroughly enjoyed it, great for kids and family who loves exploring and finding!! Staff was very friendly and kind-didn't need to pay for the entry, so thanking you!! (Will go again to explore 2nd floor, couldn't see all due to appointment)!”

“What a brilliant little museum. A beyond helpful chap at the reception desk, obliging, polite and knowledgeable. Very impressed. Has shop, loos and café. Ticket valid for a year. Lift to other floors. Well laid out displays and all really well cared for. Lots of pride evident in the whole museum. So many medals, all stored with huge respect. Highly recommend a visit to this museum.”

“What a lovely museum. We went in the school break and kids got in for free 😊. Great things to look at and do. Has a little virtual shooting range for just £1 a go. Cute little shop too for little gifts. Lovely receptionist, very welcoming. If you are in bury must go here.”
