A visit to the Household Cavalry Museum offers families a brilliant mix of history, horses, and hands-on fun right in the heart of London. Set within a working military site, the museum brings the story of the King’s mounted bodyguard to life, where you can even watch soldiers preparing their horses in the original historic stables.


For families, there’s plenty to enjoy together. Children can try on real helmets and uniforms, explore interactive displays, and take part in themed trails and fun activity sheets. During school holidays and special events, there are often craft workshops where kids can make medals, horse masks, or poppy crafts to take home. You can also see the famous Life Guard horses up close through a viewing window and catch the spectacle of ceremonial duties just outside on Horse Guards Parade.

It’s an engaging, educational, and very hands-on experience that makes history exciting for all ages while giving a unique glimpse into one of Britain’s most iconic regiments.
