About Parham Airfield Museum
The 390th Bomb Group Memorial Air Museum is a tribute to the B17 “Flying Fortress” crews who flew from Framlingham, 1943-45. 743 were killed or missing in action.
The original Control Tower opened in 1981. Nissen huts and more recently modern buildings were added to display our numerous artefacts. The museum houses a unique collection of engines, machine guns, equipment, paintings, photos and memorabilia to illustrate life on the base and war in the air.
The Museum of the British Resistance Organisation tells of the “Secret Army”. Had Britain been invaded, these Auxiliaries would have fought a ruthless guerrilla war. It opened in 1997 after research involving the surviving men and women who had been bound by the Official Secrets Act. It holds a large collection of photos, manuals, weapons and sabotage equipment.
Visitors can visit Flying Control on the tower roof and our reconstruction of the secret underground Stratford St. Andrew Operational Base where an Operational Patrol of 7 or 8 auxiliers would have lived with supplies for just two weeks and fought a guerilla war against the expected Nazi invasion.
