Step into the Napoleonic era

Step back in time and immerse yourself in the grandeur of the Napoleonic era at this special Napoleonic Living History Weekend at Chiltern Open Air Museum this June.

Visit the military encampments of Wellington, Blucher, and Napoleon's armies, each meticulously recreated to offer a glimpse into the past. Engage with passionate reenactors who will share the untold stories of the men and women behind the armies – the unsung heroes who kept them fed, clothed, marching, and loved.
