IWM Duxford, Aviation museum in South Cambridgeshire, England.
The museum exhibits over 200 military aircraft, vehicles, and naval vessels spread across seven exhibition buildings on the grounds of a former Royal Air Force base.
The site operated as RAF Duxford during World War II, serving as a crucial fighter station during the Battle of Britain in 1940.
The Imperial War Museum Duxford preserves military heritage through collections of photographs, documents, books, and personal stories from service members across different conflicts.
Visitors need at least four hours to explore the entire complex, which opens daily from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM with last entry at 3:00 PM.
The museum maintains an active airfield where vintage aircraft regularly take off and land, allowing visitors to watch flight demonstrations throughout the year.
