Introduction

Learning is at the heart of the Mary Rose Trust. We welcome learners of all ages. All our activities are based on the Mary Rose and her unique collection of Tudor artefacts. We believe learning should be challenging but fun. Hands-on activities and practical experience are central to all our programmes.  We focus on Tudor History, Maritime Archaeology and Science relating to the ship and the on-going conservation programme.
