A formerly run-down World War Two building at Bletchley Park has opened as a new museum learning centre, part of a £13million redevelopment of the historic site.
The centre is in Block E, originally built in 1943 as part of Bletchley’s wartime intelligence gathering operation.
The restored and refurbished building in Bletchley, Milton Keynes is dedicated to ‘formal and informal learning programmes’.
Lily Dean, Learning Manager for the Bletchley Park Trust, the independent charity that runs the site, said it would be a "state-of-the-art learning centre".
She added: “This facility will enable more students to visit us, supporting their studies in STEM subjects, and helping us to share the amazing feats of human ingenuity that took place at Bletchley Park with more learners than ever before.”
Block E features eight learning spaces designed to host more than 13 tailored workshops.
The completion of the new learning centre is the concluding phase of a redevelopment project that has also seen the creation of a new permanent exhibition, 'The Intelligence Factory', and a Collection Centre housing more than 420,000 items relating to Bletchley Park's wartime work.
