The museum spans that very small period in history from 1830 - 1980 in which the technological revolution took place. The collection traces the progress of electronic and engineered artefacts including telegraphy, telephony, audio, military and civil communications, warfare, photography, scientific and electrical domestic equipment.
We are proud to announce that the museum is now open to the public after redevelopment.
The museum flourished in Hemel Hempstead for over ten years, but as the collection grew we knew we would have to find larger premises, these were hard to find , so the decision was made to build a place which we could fit the collection into.
We moved the collection from Hemel in 2012 and work on the new building started shortly after.
Now four later each technology can be displayed in its own area, the result is stunning.
We offer something to amaze all age groups. Many old technologies can be demonstrated and handled, bringing an added dimension to a world which has changed dramatically since the electronic revolution took place.
