We've got some planned work to carry out on our website tonight, so tickets can't be purchased for any of our museums or attractions after 8pm. You'll still be able to buy onsite as usual tomorrow.
We are currently experiencing technical issues with our telephone lines and online ticketing platform. We are working hard behind the scenes to restore them but please email [email protected] with any urgent queries.
As a mark of respect, all our sites will be closed to visitors tomorrow as we join the rest of the country and the world in reflecting on Her Majesty The Queen's incredible contribution and enduring legacy.
A message from our Chairman and Director General:
๐ Happy Birthday Princess Royal ๐
Here Princess Anne is pictured meeting naval personnel on a visit to the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard in 2017.

#OnThisDay 1861 HMS Warrior was commissioned - 161 years ago. She was one of the worldโs most heavily armoured and largest warships ever constructed. Her innovative design sparked a naval arms race which saw her become outdated and decommissioned in 1883.

๐ฅ with a view!
The quiet waters and tranquillity of Scapa Flow are rocked by an old torpedo, safely blown up by RN bomb disposal experts from @RN_DTXG after a three-day operation in Orkney which protected underwater pipelines, cables and wildlife.
