Eden Camp
A visit to our unique museum is both entertaining and educational and appeals to all ages.
Not another glass showcase museum, realistic tableaux, incorporating moving figures, authentic sounds, smells and lighting effects have been created to transport you back in time to the Second World War period. Learn all about rationing and the Save it Schemes. Explore the inside of a U-Boat and experience what it was like to be under attack, find your way through the Black Out and brave the Blitz. Take a stroll through the Street at War and take shelter in an air raid shelter. For some light relief, visit the Eden Camp Music Hall/Puppet Show or let off steam in the Eden Camp Junior Assault course.(weather permitting)
We also have an extensive collection of vehicles, planes and other military hardware on display.
On a number of special days during the year, Eden camp becomes the temporary home of a number or re-enactment teams, when visitors can come face to face with German POW's, British soldiers, an American MP or even the great British Bobby.

Eden Camp is situated on the northern outskirts of the North Yorkshire market town of Malton, which lies half way between York and Scarborough. We are located on the junction of the A64 and A169.
You should allow 3-4 hours for a visit.
On busy days, try and arrive in the first hour of opening (between 10.00am and 11.00 am) to avoid the main crowds. If you can't arrive early then consider starting your tour at Hut 20 or 24 and work through to Hut 29 as the low number huts are always busy in the morning and less crowded in the afternoon(Huts 1-19).
We are an all-weather site. The vast majority of our displays and exhibits are indoors.
If you've had fun on your family day out to Eden Camp, tell us about it your visit, so other people will know it's a great place to go as well.
