This place sheds light on the profession we all dreamed of in our childhood. The International Spy Museum is a perfect way to spend a few hours with your family or friends. Kids are going to have a blast at the exhibits, as they are interactive and fun.
People (12 years of age and older) can participate in an immersive experience called Operation Spy which lets you see what it is like to be a spy on an important mission through fulfilling challenging tasks and activities.
Probably the most popular exhibit is the Exquisitely Evil: 50 Years of Bond Villains. You will get to see props from the movies, but you can also watch videos from professionals connecting the events in the movie to actual events that happened in the world.
The more educational part of the museum consists of artefacts that show just how creative technicians can be. You will be amazed by things like a lipstick pistol, or an Enigma cipher machine. Some of these artefacts have never been seen by the public before.
The building is fully wheelchair accessible. Some of the exhibits contain fast flashing lights, so if that is of concern to you, speak to one of the attendants at the museum and they will brief you on which locations to avoid.
The museum opens between 9 am and 10 am and closes between 6 pm and 8 pm depending on the season and holidays. Please, check the website.
