REME Museum, Military engineering museum in Lyneham, England.

The REME Museum is a military engineering museum in Lyneham that displays vehicles, weapons, uniforms, medals, tools, and testing equipment from the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers. The collection shows the machines and spare parts that technicians used to repair and maintain equipment in the field.

The museum was founded in 1956 at Arborfield and moved to a former Officers' Mess at MOD Lyneham in 2017. The move was made to provide more space for the growing collection.

The museum preserves objects and records that show how REME engineers kept military equipment running in different parts of the world since World War II. You can see the everyday work and problem-solving that these technicians did in the field.

The museum sits outside the security perimeter of MOD Lyneham, so you can visit without military clearance. The space allows you to move through the exhibits at a comfortable pace and explore different sections at your own speed.

The museum holds a Challenger Armoured Recovery Vehicle and a Scammell Pioneer, showing how military vehicle maintenance technology changed over time. These specialized machines were built to pull damaged or stuck equipment out of the field and get it back for repair.
