Set in the heart of Worcester, The Commandery is one of the oldest buildings in the city and has lots of character and charm. The property has been used as a Medieval hospital, civil war battle headquarters, the Georgian home of an influential local family, a college for the blind, a printworks, and it is now the site of a fascinating museum. The venue is stunning from every angle, with a new photo opportunity around every corner. From timber-framed walls and great wooden doorways to beautiful brickwork, Georgian windows and the charming canal, there is much to admire and enjoy.

The charming walled gardens look onto the picturesque Georgian wing and the lawn stretches towards Fort Royal Hill, framed by wonderfully- maintained flowerbeds, trees and redbrick walls.

CELEBRATE IN STYLE
The Medieval Great Hall is at the very heart of The Commandery, featuring a traditional 15th-century timbered roof and majestic Civil War armour. With light filtering in through the delicate painted glass of the Oriel window and Minstrel’s Gallery, it’s a truly wonderful space. The hall is a versatile entertaining area which can be used for the ceremony, relaxing, dining or dancing for up to 70 loved ones.

The enclosed gardens behind The Commandery overlook the picturesque Georgian wing and can accommodate a marquee.

The Oak Apple Suite is a small and private set of rooms that are separate from the museum’s visitor route. There is a lovely entrance hall where drinks can be served, a comfortable side room with sofas and room for 20 guests.

For a more intimate ceremony, The Queen Anne Room is available, featuring a stunning fireplace that provides a splash of grandeur to the bright and inviting room with space for up to 10 nearest and dearest.
