Military history

Military Heritage Centre

A compact museum inside an 18th-century battery, covering the Rock's fortification from the Moors to the Cold War.

The battery is the exhibit as much as the displays are: casemates, gun positions and magazines arranged for a defence that had to work in every direction at once.

Useful context if you are doing the tunnels and batteries in one run, and mercifully short if military history is not why you came.
