The history of the Norfolk Regiment and its predecessors and successors is recorded at the Royal Norfolk Regimental Museum. The regiment museum moved from the Britannia Barracks, now part of Norwich prison, to the Shirehall and then to the Castle Musuem. Among the museum collection are two of the six Victoria Crosses won.
Other regimental artefacts are on display at the Royal Anglian Regiment Museum based at the Land Warfare Hall of the Imperial War Museum Duxford.

Famous quotes containing the words royal and/or museum:
“a highly respectable gondolier,
Who promised the Royal babe to rear
And teach him the trade of a timoneer
With his own beloved brattling.”
—Sir William Schwenck Gilbert (1836–1911)
“When I go into a museum and see the mummies wrapped in their linen bandages, I see that the lives of men began to need reform as long ago as when they walked the earth. I come out into the streets, and meet men who declare that the time is near at hand for the redemption of the race. But as men lived in Thebes, so do they live in Dunstable today.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
