Radar Museum in Norwich

Are you interested in radars and the RAF? Head over to Norfolk’s radar museum and experience the UK’s radar history first-hand. Here you will find the UK’s only Cold War Operations Room which was vital in linking the RAF’s Command and Control System in the years that followed WW2. Don’t you want to know how close we really came to a nuclear war?

With just a short 11 miles journey from Norwich City Centre, you’ll come face to face with a sense of what those dangerous times of the Cold War were like for Britain’s air defence. Spend around 2-3 hours taking in all the knowledge this place has to offer from their exhibitions and presentations.

With twenty-four exhibition rooms and over 10,000 display items, you won’t run out of things to see and this will make for the opportunity to see through a window into the past. To bring history to life even further, there are two daily presentations from ex-RAF personnel sharing knowledge and stories of Air Defence at this very facility. With a café on-site you won’t go hungry and don’t forget the gift shop to pick up a memento of your day experiencing real history.
