The location shots for the Dad`s Army TV series were filmed in and around the town of Thetford from 1968 to 1977. The museum celebrates this wonderful comedy. It houses unique photographs (many supplied by The Dad's Army Appreciation Society) alongside the many and varied memorabilia associated with the show. There is also information about the local Home Guard.
Why not take the Dad's Army Trail? You can choose to take the walking tour around the many locations in the town. There are also regular guided tours throughout the year, including a visit to the museum and a viewing of the DVD Extra Time, which tells the story of local people used as extras in the series.
The 'Friends' also arrange private viewings, talks, school's events, 1940's nights, 1940's dance classes and much, much more!
