The Bentwaters Cold War
Museum is 3 miles east of the station in
Rendlesham. It is open to the public on select Sundays.
Located on the old RAF Bentwaters site inside a hardened command
post, volunteers have restored the war operations room and battle
cabin, and collected much memorabilia from the base's active days.
Learn about the UFO incident at Rendlesham Forest, and see scale models
of the aircraft that made Bentwaters their
home.
