International Bomber Command Centre

Visited on a weekday. £9.50 plus £3.00 for parking so quite pricey compared to similar memorial places, however it is a good charity so didn’t worry too much about the cost. The tour is worth listening to and the films and info very interesting, humbling and thought-provoking. The planting is young and will only get more beautiful as the plants and trees mature. Enjoyable day out. Nice cafe with a terrace in the sun and friendly staff. The shop is pricey also.

What a wonderful place to visit and pay your respects to our heroes.
Sadly my first visit was due to a cousin passing and having a wake with all his family and friends.
The staff are amazing and showed us all great respect and compassion in such circumstances.
They supplied a beautiful buffet which was very tasty with many varieties of sandwiches etc.
As for the centre, it is new and I understand the grounds need time to grow and mature and any teething problems will be done in time but it is well worth a visit.
The views are stunning and with such an open space you feel the ambience of why you are there.
Congratulations to all who run this beautiful memorial.
See you again soon.

Fair price as it's the same whether it's for a day or a year. So many themed events on too. Today there was a Glenn Miller Tribute Band playing with lots of visitors dressing up in 40's style clothes and bringing picnics. Stark and imposing memorial on an elevated site. Glimpses of the distant Lincoln Cathedral in the distance. Very nice cafe with very friendly and efficient staff.

First time visitors. It was clear from the start that work continues on the site as the road in was still under construction, but not a problem.
We were greeted by very friendly staff, who explained how to visit the site and what there was to see. This was important as one of the spaces is quite dark and periodically goes darker as old images are portrayed on a screen. Our granddaughter was a little frightened at first but our grandson was fine. Overall it was very informative. There was a very clever animation for children to man a bomber in the various positions and fly there and back.
We visited the cafe, that had lovely views to the memorial outside. We went outside and walked to the memorial that had spectacular views of Lincoln cathedral. There are also poignant smaller memorials alongside the path and the main ones at the end to honour those who lost their lives serving in bomber command. The memorials are not limited to ww2, as there are more modern memorials to see. It was very well done we thought.
There is a well stocked shop to peruse. The staff were really very helpful and friendly and we enjoyed the visit.
It's clear they're still working on aspects of the site, but don't let that put you off, we would thoroughly recommend a visit.

A very thought-provoking and sobering place to visit. Excellent exhibition with many interactive elements that children would enjoy. Lots of stories and photos captured and on display. The memorial garden and spire are a fantastic way for those involved to be remembered.

Visited here soon after it opened and now with my 10yr old grandson. There's been a lot of updating and improvement. So ... no height barriers and plenty of parking for £3 a day - payable at reception. Free to walk round the gardens, memorial and shop/cafe. The museum is £8/£9 adults and £5.50 a child. The memorial Gardens and sculpture are amazing, well worth a visit without the museum. The museum is fairly small, on 2 levels, but with lots of interactive activities, a really good introduction film, in four 3 minute sections. There's a lot of information and visual effects. Very impressive. We had almost 2 hours visiting, by which time we'd taken in enough information and had had enough reading etc. Great place, friendly staff, well worth a visit.

What a lovely place to visit.
Very moving tribute to those who fell for our freedom.
Goid choice of food in cafe.
Lovely coffee.
Various items in shop.

FREE to enter, but a charge to go in the Exhibition.
Car Park £3.

Free use of wheelchairs, but can be difficult to push on the gravel areas.

It's always important to remember what sacrifice was made during wars for this country to remain free. This place does all that and more.

The memorial and plaques with all the names of fallen service personnel are so beautifully done.

The centre has a museum section which tells the story of the ordinary men and women who were part of Bomber Command.

The Cafe serves a varied selection of drinks and food and should not be missed.

Then on the way out take the time to wander around the shop which has plenty to offer

Well worth the visit 🙂
