This week, 25 to 29 May, is Dunkirk Week

Although our doors may be temporarily closed, we will continue to share more of our unique world-class collection and incredible stories of the RAF online via the RAF Museum at Home. Over the next few weeks, we will share the best from our collection in a series of themed weeks and weekends

This week we commemorate the 80th anniversary of Dunkirk.
