Secrets of Radar Museum

The Secrets of Radar Museum is a military museum in London, Ontario, that houses thousands of photographs and radar equipment from World War II. The collection displays various radar systems that were used during the conflict for aviation and defense purposes.

The museum documents the history of over 6,000 Canadian veterans who worked in classified radar operations during World War II. These veterans maintained secrecy about their work under an oath until 1991.

The museum sits on traditional lands of the Anishinaabek, Haudenosaunee, Lūnaapéewak, and Attawandaron peoples. This connection to the 1796 treaties reflects the deeper history of the region.

The museum is located on Crumlin Side Road and welcomes visitors on specific days during the week. It operates on a donation basis, allowing visitors to contribute what they can.

The museum maintains a specialized collection of oral history interviews with radar veterans, giving researchers direct access to personal wartime experiences. These recordings preserve important firsthand accounts that might otherwise be forgotten.
