Bentwaters Cold War Museum
Museum covering the history of RAF Bentwaters (A short car ride from Fram) The museum is based in the former USAAF hardened command post on the former Bentwaters airfield and covers the history of operations there from WW11 until closure in 1993.
The museum is based in the former USAF hardened command post on the former Bentwaters airfield, we believe that currently this is the only such building open regularly to the public in the UK and Europe. The main "war operations room" and "Battle cabin" have been restored to original condition, the BT telephone exchange room, and decontamination showers and airlock are also as original. Other rooms within the building have been turned into exhibition rooms, covering the history of RAF Bentwaters from W.W.II until the base closed in 1993. Included in this are histories of the units that operated form the airfield, particularly the 81st FW.
