This museum showcases the history and technology of wind power, featuring exhibits on windmills, wind turbines, and their role in generating electricity. Interactive displays and models demonstrate the science behind wind energy, while a recreated 19th-century windmill interior and a collection of vintage windmill machinery provide a glimpse into the past.
Broadland MGOC members visited museum this evening everyone thoroughly enjoyed their tour with a guide who had a wealth of knowledge. We opted to include a BBQ during our visit which was excellent and well presented tea served in China cup's not your everyday plastic or cardboard. Will return with my grandchildren during school holidays Thursday and Friday's see more on website. Excellent David
Really interest hidden gem! Well worth finding, and don't forget the iconic white windmill at Thurne, 2 miles up the riverbank.
I did not visit the wind energy museum. I live nearby. The museu has been closed for at least 3 seasons
This is a lovely, informative, voluntary run museum, hosting a great collection of wind turbines/pumps, that could do with more people knowing about it! We were met by a very enthusiastic volunteer, who guided us round. It's a little off the beaten track, although the signs led us straight there. PS5 for adults, PS3.50 for children. You can walk to Thurne Mill from the wind museum, making for a lovely day. They allow dogs in too, as most of it is outside, and a comfy hut/conservatory is a great place to eat one of the cakes or partake in afternoon tea and scones!
Debbie,our tour guide is a fountain of knowledge in her field,who really knows her onions! Secluded & in a peaceful, relaxing location, it really is well worth a look. We popped into Thurne windpump on the way & was delighted to make acquaintance with John,the windpump tour guide,a real Norfolk character who can regail you with tales of old! An informative & interesting day in a great county!
Quirky, mainly outdoor museum comprising a variety of wind energy exhibits run by a team of commited, enthusiastic volunteers. History of this place is what makes it special though - built on the passion of one man for all things windmills. Tea room and indoor exhibition also available. Worth a visit.
