Follow the development of computing: from the Turing-Welchman Bombe and Colossus of the 1940s through the large systems and mainframes of the 1950s, 60s and 70s, to the rise of personal computing and the rise of mobile computing and the internet.

The National Museum of Computing, located on Bletchley Park, is an independent charity housing the world's largest collection of functional historic computers and WW2 machines, including Enigma, Lorenz, the working Turing-Welchman Bombe, the rebuilt Colossus (the world’s first electronic computer), and the WITCH (the world's oldest working digital computer). The Museum enables visitors to follow the development of computing from the ultra-secret pioneering efforts of the 1940s, through the large systems and mainframes of the 1950s, 60s and 70s, and the rise of personal computing in the 1980s and beyond.

Recognised as one of England’s top 100 ‘irreplaceable places’, we welcome individuals from all over the world to view our unrivalled collection.

At TNMOC, our incredible team of dedicated volunteers brings computing history to life! Whether you're fascinated by early codebreaking machines or vintage home computers, our experts are on hand to explain, demonstrate, and answer questions about our world-class collection. Unlike traditional museums, we encourage visitors to get hands-on with history, offering unique opportunities to interact with working machines from decades past.

PLEASE NOTE: Although based on the Bletchley Park site, TNMOC is a separate entity, and you will need to pre-book your visit separately.
