HorsePower: The Museum of the King's Royal Hussars, Military museum in Peninsula Barracks, Winchester, Great Britain.

The Museum of the King's Royal Hussars displays military uniforms, medals, weapons, equipment, and armored vehicles across multiple exhibition halls.

The museum documents three centuries of Royal Hussar regiments, including the 10th and 11th Royal Hussars, which merged into The King's Royal Hussars in 1992.

Life-sized model horses, paintings of generals, and a diorama of the Battle of Balaclava demonstrate the evolution from cavalry to modern armored regiment.

Visitors can purchase military-related products at the museum shop and enjoy refreshments at Copper Joes cafe within Peninsula Barracks.

The museum maintains an extensive archive containing original documents and photographs from six different Hussar regiments of the British Army.
