Royal Naval Patrol Service Museum
Heritage Open Day: During WW2 Lowestoft was home to the Royal Naval Patrol Service - HMS Europa. This fascinating museum provides a unique insight into the work of the Royal Naval Patrol Service The Royal Naval Patrol Service Association, Registered Charity no 273148, was founded in 1977 to unite the veterans who served in the Royal Naval Patrol Service 1939-1946 and to assist those of them and their dependents who might be in need. The Association also maintains and preserves a record of the work and experiences of RNPS during World War 2 by means of a Museum which seeks to educate subsequent generations about this aspect of WW2 - Accredited to ISO 9001 standard
Although the Association occupies some of the original buildings of HMS Europa it was not formed until 30 years after the end of WW2. None of the original naval records were still in the pemises when the Association moved in and the only records we have are those donated by veterans and/or family members.
