An excellent little museum just by the main gate to RAF Marham. It tells the history of the airbase from its inception to the present day with some very interesting exhibits including a bouncing bomb and an old, deactivated nuclear bomb. It is also staffed by very knowledgeable people so make sure you speak to them. Well worth a visit. We had a great time there.

This place is a fantastic place to visit . The museum staff are so knowledgeable and friendly and helpful and nothing is to much for them. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who I know is visiting the area. I would also recommend for a good day out anyway.

Brilliant! A tribute to our brave lads (even as an ex-Army Vet). Anywhere that houses a nuclear weapon needs 🫡 respect 😳😳😳😉🤩🍺🍺

Excellent museum! Some very interesting pieces unique to Marham. The people that work here are very knowledgeable. I’m not from a military background and found this really interesting. Entry is free, but donations are very very well received. Plenty of parking nearby too.

It is a brilliant museum - full of items that shows the R.A.F & Marham as important & all the persons (service and civvy ) who have given their selves for their country. The museum should be funded and more recogntion David Woodward - Downham Market

This little gem gives a comprehensive insight into RAF Marham's long, varied, and distinguished history. The building, the former church, is outside of the base, so there's no requirement for passes. There are plenty of artefacts, stories, and quality photos to enjoy. Run by volunteers, mostly ex- service personnel, with great knowledge and welcoming manner. There is no entry fee, but donations are always gratefully received.

A brilliant centre with very knowledgeable volunteers. The virtual reality 17 min raid over Berlin is a must. You fly in a Lanc & my wife & I were very moved by the realistic & emotional experience. Wow! (Prepare to be moved) Thanks.

Great experience from the team who helped create such an amazing time for me and my family. Nothing was too much trouble and my 11 year old was fascinated by the stories. A hidden little gem with so much history. Well worth a visit if you are in the local area.

Great little museum displaying the history of RAF Marham. The volunteers are enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable in sharing their passion of this Norfolk bomber base. Admission is free but encourages a small donation that helps run the museum which is a small price to pay for an interesting and informative piece of aviation history.

Excellent little museum. The chaps who run it are all ex RAF, so friendly and knowledgeable with some amazing anecdotes. They really make the visit and change it from a quick look round an interesting museum to a first class tour pointing out so much you'd otherwise miss. Will be going back soon.
