Sikorski Museum, 20 Princes Gate, London, SW7 1PT, England

The Sikorski Museum was established at the end of World War II by the exiled Polish community in London who did not wish to return home to a Russian controlled homeland. The exhibition consists of 10,000 military objects, and the Enigma Ciphering Machine which was cracked by Polish mathematicians.

Exhibits are marked in Polish, but for non-Polish speakers there is an English language tour.
