IWM Duxford – Britain’s Aviation Story

Take to the skies of British history with a fascinating day out at IWM Duxford, one of the country’s most impressive aviation museums and a historic airfield with an extraordinary story to tell.

Once an operational RAF station, Duxford played an important role during some of the defining moments of the Second World War and was home to fighter aircraft and pilots who helped defend Britain. Today, this remarkable site brings more than a century of aviation and military history to life through enormous hangars, historic buildings, exhibitions and an outstanding collection of aircraft.

With plenty of time to explore at your own pace, step inside the vast AirSpace exhibition and discover the story of British and Commonwealth aviation. Come face-to-face with some truly iconic aircraft and discover how aviation developed from its pioneering beginnings through wartime and into the modern era.

Continue through the historic airfield and explore Duxford’s connection with the Battle of Britain, discovering the people, aircraft and stories behind one of the most significant chapters in Britain’s wartime history.

Another highlight is the spectacular American Air Museum, which tells the story of Anglo-American collaboration in conflict. Its dramatic collection includes aircraft from different generations of American aviation, making it one of the most memorable areas of the museum.

There is plenty to discover beyond the aircraft too. Explore military vehicles, historic buildings and exhibitions covering warfare on land as well as in the air. You may even get a glimpse of conservation work taking place as specialists preserve historic aircraft and objects for future generations.

The size of IWM Duxford makes it ideal for a full day visit, allowing you to choose the exhibitions that interest you most without feeling rushed. Cafés and refreshment facilities are available around the site, alongside the museum shop where you can browse aviation-inspired gifts, books and souvenirs.

Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, interested in military and social history, or simply looking for somewhere completely different to explore, IWM Duxford offers an absorbing and memorable day out.

Sit back, relax and leave the driving to Richard Taylor Travel as we take you to one of Britain's most remarkable historic aviation attractions.
