Lowestoft War Memorial Museum, Military museum in Sparrows Nest Gardens, Lowestoft, England.

The Lowestoft War Memorial Museum displays numerous artifacts, photographs, and personal narratives related to World War I and II in Suffolk's coastal region.

The building served as the headquarters of the Royal Naval Patrol Service from 1939 until 1946, when it operated under the designation HMS Europa.

The museum includes a memorial chapel and a roll of honor listing local civilians who lost their lives during enemy actions in both World Wars.

The museum welcomes visitors on Sundays and Bank holiday afternoons between May and October, with volunteer staff providing information about the exhibits.

The museum occupies brick and concrete extensions that remained after the demolition of Robert Sparrow's original thatched summer residence in the 1960s.
