International Bomber Command Centre

The International Bomber Command Centre is a museum in North Kesteven dedicated to the history of bombing aircraft during World War II. It features a tall memorial spire, walls inscribed with names, and exhibition spaces that display information and objects related to the aircraft and personnel involved.

The Centre was created as a memorial to Bomber Command, an air force unit that carried out hundreds of thousands of bombing missions during World War II. These aircraft crews played an important role in air campaigns against targets across Europe and suffered very high casualty rates.

The center maintains a digital archive containing personal stories, photographs, and documents that preserve the experiences of Bomber Command personnel.

The site is easy to reach and has ample parking for visitors, making access straightforward. The exhibitions are clearly marked and you can spend as much time as you need exploring the different areas at your own pace.

The memorial spire of the museum matches the wingspan length of a Lancaster bomber, creating a direct visual connection to this historic aircraft type. These proportions help visitors understand the scale and importance of the aircraft used by these crews.
