The Norfolk Tank Museum is a characterful, hands-on military vehicle museum a short drive from Park Hotel Diss. It’s a great choice for families and anyone with an interest in military history and engineering.
Military vehicles up close
The museum’s collection includes tanks, armoured vehicles and a wealth of military memorabilia, with knowledgeable volunteers on hand to bring the exhibits to life. It’s an engaging, personal museum rather than a vast corporate attraction.
Experience days
On selected dates the museum runs tank-driving and ride experiences — something genuinely different for a special occasion or gift. These need to be booked in advance.
Good to Know
- Opening days can be limited — check before travelling.
- Experience days must be booked ahead.
- A good rainy-day or special-interest option for families.
Park Hotel Diss is a convenient base for a visit to the Norfolk Tank Museum and the surrounding countryside.
