We will be closed from 24 - 26 December

Hangars

The Museum site is vast and it is difficult to see everything in just one visit. Here are some suggestions about what you could fit into a short and longer visit:

National Cold War Exhibition


Explore the immense threat posed to world peace and security during this significant period of the 20th century. See a real piece of the Berlin wall and the V Bombers - Vickers, Valiant, and Vulcan.
