The Commandery is the perfect place for a family day out where you can discover Worcester's fascinating and varied history, and become an explorer in the spacious walled gardens.

Explore encampments, watch military displays, see musicians and dancers, and discover traditional crafts from different periods of history.

Living History 2025 is organised in partnership with The Worcester Re-enactors. There will be a full schedule of timed displays and drills throughout the day.
