Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre

Set in the heart of the Leicestershire countryside, the Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre offers a relaxing and picturesque location to explore one of the turning points of British and Medieval history.

Set within the grounds of the Battlefield Country Park, the purpose built, colourful, multi award winning and interactive centre tells the story of the Battle of Bosworth in 1485, at which King Richard III lost his crown to Henry Tudor, the last time an English King died on the battlefield, which saw the start of the Tudor dynasty.

As well as the multi-award winning, permanent exhibition, featuring 8 modern galleries, on most weekends you will have the opportunity to join a guided walk led by an experienced Battlefield Guide to provide additional information and orientation. Visit www.bosworthbattlefield.org.uk for up to date information on the site including details of weekend guided walks, a varied events programme including regular weekend living history camps from April to August, as well as information on charges for activities and events and more details on all aspects of the site.

Our knowledgeable team always strive to offer a warm welcome and aim to help you to get the most out of your visit. If you wish to make contact before your visit, or have any questions the website can't answer, please call 01455 290 429, Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm.
