The Tank Museum
One of the world's richest tank museums, where you can see the world's first tank and a working Tiger tank.
The museum is located at Bovington Camp and has a collection of more than 300 armoured vehicles. These include the World War I Little Willie prototype and Mark I tank, World War II Tiger, Panther and Sherman tanks, and Cold War main battle tanks. The summer Tank Festival and dynamic demonstrations show tanks in motion. The galleries are arranged chronologically, and there is an immersive recreation of trenches. Admission is about £20 or more, and tickets are valid for multiple visits within one year.
