Imperial war museum Duxford. A polish Freind is visiting IWM but does not speak English can you get headphones that translate to polish so he can enjoy the experience more
A:
there are headphones at the churchill war rooms not sure what languages and I believe they have them at other locations again not sure about the languages available
Hi can I ask if you are open after the Easter bank holiday Monday? and if so is it the usual 10am-1800Hrs please? I know you sometimes close during school holidays you see. Thank you

Their website says they are open every day except 24 to 26 December. 10am - 6pm daily.
It is free but frankly I wouldn't waste your time. The exhibits are meagre and the whole place has been dumbed down. Both HMS Belfast and the Cabinet War Rooms are far better.
