Family Visit

Discover, explore and have royal fun together. We offer activities for all the family. Both on site and online.

Magical Christmas at the Royal Armoury

We love magic! And what could be more enchanting than experiencing The Royal Armoury during the most magical time of the year – Christmas! Try to sing opera, take a guided family tour, do our history quiz, and other playful activities.

The Children's Armoury

In the Children’s Armoury, we have stepped out of the display cases and straight into the wondrous world of royal history. Magical things happen under the glittering, starry sky! Explore the cabinet of curiosities and discover the conservator’s studio.

Practical information before your visit

  • Parms: It is unfortunately not possible to take prams into the museum’s exhibition space. It is possible to park and lock the pram outdoors next to the museum.
  • Wardrobe: There is a cloakroom next to the museum’s shop. There are hangers for clothes as well as hat shelves. You will also find some lockable cabinets in the cloakroom.
  • Packed meal: We do not have any room for eating packed meals. The sensitive environment means that it is not permitted to eat or drink in the museum’s exhibitions, entrance or shop. 
  • Lavatory: Half a staircase down, towards the royal carriages.
