Although we are kindly accommodated by, and receive good will from Wattisham Flying Station we do not receive any funding from either the Station or the MoD, and rely totally on visitor donations to survive, and also to restore, preserve and exhibit precious aircraft, photographs and memorabilia.
We do not charge an entry fee, but we politely suggest a minimum donation of £5 per adult.
We also cater for larger group visits, please contact us to discuss your requirements.
We feel that a visit to Wattisham Heritage Museum is unique, the airfield has a very long and distinguished history, there is a lot to see and experience for all ages, in both the Museum and our Heritage Workshop. Please allow at least an hour and a half for your visit.
We look forward to seeing you

Wattisham Heritage Museum are a group of around 20 like minded people of all ages and from all walks of life. Our aim is to restore, preserve and exhibit the long and distinguished history of Wattisham Flying Station, formerly RAF Wattisham and to inform and educate future generations.
Our small committee comprises civilians, former servicemen. Although we operate with the full support of Wattisham Flying Station we are autonomous and rely on donations from the general public to survive.
Not only do we warmly welcome visitors to our open Sundays, we are always delighted to organise private visits from clubs, schools and organisations, also Squadron Associations, and of course Wattisham veterans and their families from all over the world.
We are also proud to help provide a link with Wattisham Flying Station and the Suffolk community, the Station is part of our local history having been in existence since 1939.
