REME Museum and its collection

The REME Museum exists to tell the story of the Corps of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME). Formed in October 1942, wherever you find the British Army, there you will find REME. Whether it’s keeping an Apache attack helicopter battle ready or recovering a Challenger tank under fire, REME personnel make sure that cutting edge kit is ready for action. Discover the people, equipment and stories behind the uniform at the REME Museum. Located just outside MOD Lyneham in Wiltshire, the museum features modern, interactive displays from rare World War Two vehicles to a tiny toothbrush made by a REME prisoner of war. Alongside the main collection, the museum runs a programme of temporary exhibitions, special events throughout the year and family trails. The museum is open Tuesday to Sunday, 10:00 to 16:30 with facilities including the not-for-profit Crown’s Café, free parking, an under 7s playpark and Dig for Victory Garden. Additional services by appointment include research, school visits and group tours.
