Our museum is open annually April to end Oct, 10am to 4pm Weds through to Sun each week (please ignore what Google says are our opening times - they keep automatically changing our hours!) Armourgeddon Military Museum is based in Leicester and offers a variety of vehicles, weapons and artillery. Alongside our museum we operate Armourgeddon Tank Driving & Battles as well as offering multi activity days. All of which are suitable for Corporate events, stag/hen parties as well as individuals.
This is a nice little place to get a feel for military machines. There is a strong emphasis on world war 2 with many tanks from that era. It's not a huge place so you should cover it in 2 hours. There are options for tank rides but I don't know how much they cost. It's totally disabled friendly and has a small cafe. When I visited it was not busy and the cafe didn't seem to be manned. However it's still worth a visit if your anywhere near South Leicestershire/North Northamptonshire.
What a truely amazing place all for PS9, may not be on a massive scale but plenty of history packed into this museum.. lots of tank activity from FV432's on there dirt track.. i was lucky yesterday to watch the Stug III G move under its own power, everyone we had a chat with were very helpful.. can't wait to go back
We took our teenage grandson for a 1 to 1 tank driving experience. It was all superb in every way. The guy who took our booking (he's called G) really understood our needs and tailored the visit to what we were after. On the day we had a brilliant instructor called Mick who was fabulous with our grandson. They had a good drive after getting the overalls on and a safety briefing. The site is amazing and we enjoyed the museum afterwards. I really recommend Armourgeddon
Small but nice collection of military vehicles, spanning WW11 and Cold War periods. There's also a tank driving experience, on the day I was there i only saw APC's but what the heck for most one tracked vehicle with a gun is much like another, and very much doubt the designation detracted from the enjoyment of the driving experience for those taking part. I only spectated but looked like those on the driving experience got plenty of time on the course. All the staff are very friendly and willing to talk about the exhibits, it's obvious the have an extensive knowledge of the subject and are more than happy to share it with you if you ask a question, there also nice little cafe serving snacks, teas, coffee, and soft drinks. All in all if you like your military vehicles and visit other museums of this ilk there's nothing here you wouldn't have seen before but still well worth a visit, especially if you miss the rattle of a tracked vehicles nailing it across a field. I very much enjoyed my visit, thank you
Fantastic place. Loved the tank driving experience. Staff were great. The museum is superb. My only issue is there's no food served except flap Jack's. A burger van would be great. Just a suggestion. Overall the day was superb.
Great place to visit. We enjoyed looking around all the different vehicles and at all the military paraphernalia. It really makes you think about what our ancestors and grandparents went through in the wars. It was fascinating to find out just how heavy the guns were, just thinking that they had to be carried everywhere with them whilst wearing those really heavy helmets and carrying all their other equipment too, it's just mind blowing. This place is suitable for people in wheelchairs, both manual and electric, it's also suitable for pushchairs. There are tables that can be used, indoors and outside for picnics or if the cafe is open you can buy drinks and snacks, but they are not cheap. We spent 4 hours here and really enjoyed it. It does advertise that there are tanks from movies there, but we didn't see any. Disappointed by that. Only saw 3 actual tanks and a lot of people carrying vehicles, would have liked to see a German tank. Well worth a visit, and it's not a bad price either.
