This is the time of year to get spring cleaning, to clear out the old rushes and bring in the new, ready for summer. Come and find out how the Mary Rose‘s crew would have kept themselves and the ship in good order or “shipshape” and celebrate her connection with Portsmouth.
Discover our spring update to our popular Hatch’s History Detectives trail, designed by local artists at Seekers Create for Spring 2025! Follow our ship’s dog’s paw prints through the museum galleries and find out the crew’s top tips for staying in style – well, at least for a Tudor!
Every weekday over the Easter holidays (Monday 7 to Friday 11 and Monday 14 to Friday 18 April) our Activity centre will be open for you to join in with our giant doodle, play along with some musical instruments, and solve our braille wordsearch. Free fun for all the family with a Portsmouth Historic Dockyard ticket!
