Following a fire in 1802 surviving artefacts were housed in the Old Military Academy building, and then the main collection was moved to the Rotunda on Woolwich Common in 1820 where it remained until 2001. This museum was distinct from the Royal Artillery Regimental Museum (opened in 1946) which set up in another part of Woolwich and was run by the Royal Artillery Institution (RAI, founded 1838), an organisation that is funded by subscriptions from serving officers and is the custodian of the Regiment's heritage. There were no guns in the Regimental Museum, but rather items of personal property such as uniforms, hats and telescopes. The regimental museum was supported by the Government (civil service staff) until the late 1980s/early 1990s when it became entirely the Regiment's responsibility.

    Regeneration through Heritage: Understanding the Development Potential of Historic European Arsenals Heritage:UnderstandingtheDevelopmentPotentialofHistoricEuropean Regeneration through The Sustainable Historic Arsenals Regeneration Partnership (SHARP) was formed between the EU Regeneration through Heritage nations of England, Malta, Estonia and Spain to share lessons learned while seeking new futures for these culturally important but neglected former military sites. Understanding the Development As lead partner in the part EU-funded project, English Heritage reviewed the story of the rescue, conservation and re-use of the former Royal Arsenal, Woolwich – an example of the contribution that heritage can make to social, economic and cultural regeneration. This was followed by investigation of Potential of Historic European Arsenals the challenges and opportunities presented by comparable sites in Malta, Spain and Estonia. In Malta, the aim is to revitalise a succession of military sites adjoining the Grand Harbour; at Cadiz it is to bring back into public view the fortifications that repulsed Napoleon’s army; while at Tallinn it is to help the citizens of the young Republic of Estonia to understand their complex past under Russian Imperial, Soviet and Nazi rule. Each of these projects is providing fascinating lessons and outcomes. This is the story of that process and its resulting recommendations.

    Edition Axel Menges GmbH Esslinger Straße 24 D-70736 Stuttgart-Fellbach tel. +49-711-574759 fax +49-711-574784 [email protected] John Zukowsky New Military Museums 128 pp. with 260 illus., 242x297,5 mm, hard-cover, English ISBN 978-3-86905-015-7 Euro 39.90, £ 35.90, US $ 46.90 Museum architecture has blossomed over the past few decades. Art museums lead the way in terms of new buildings by superstar architects such as Frank Gehry, Herzog and de Meuron, Jean Nou- vel, and Renzo Piano, among many more. Those facilities have received public and professional recognition through media atten- tion and design awards. But other museum typologies exist, one such being for buildings that showcase military history and artifacts. All too often, one thinks of these as unsophisticated in their design and amateurish or antiquated in their exhibitions. Nowadays, noth- ing can be further from the truth. This volume examines more than thirty of them internationally that were constructed over the past two decades and more. The museums are featured in individual entries and lavish color photography. Some were designed by in- ternationally renowned architects such as Norman Foster, Daniel Libeskind, Skidmore Owings & Merrill, and Robert A.M. Stern, but many more are the products of creative, accomplished designers. Beyond the architecture of these museums, exhibition and installa- tion designs by noted specialist firms such as Ralph Appelbaum Associates, Koosmann.dejong, and Gallagher & Associates, among others, have raised the bar in terms of immersive experiences for their visitors. New military museums presented within the book are examined Distributors within the context of the history of war memorials and military mu- seums, the latter being a less well researched subject.
