Royal Armouries at Fort Nelson


Royal Armouries at Fort Nelson was built in the 1860s, as part of a chain of fortifications protecting the great naval harbour of Portsmouth in Hampshire and its Royal Dockyard from a feared French invasion. Covering nearly 19 acres and now fully restored, Fort Nelson sits majestically atop Portdsown Hill, with amazing views of the Solent and the Meon Valley. Explore secret underground chambers and tunnels or take a tour with an expert guide. Daily gun salutes, drama and costumed actors bring to life exciting characters from the past. An all new special events programme celebrates Trafalgar 200.
