Chilton Open Air Museum

Chilton Open Air Museum – The past has been captured with a collection of genuine historic buildings, rescued and reconstructed on 45 acres of rolling countryside and woodland. The centre will help to explain the changes that have occurred from the times of the Iron age through to World War Two. The farm has lots of demos and hands-on activities such as candle-making. There is a working farm with lots of animals to see. The museum rescues historic buildings about to be demolished, and rebuilds and preserves them in a traditional Chilterns landscape. The centre is run by volunteers who act as tour guides etc who demonstrate some of the crafts. Best visited on a sunny day. The centre is closed during winter months except for special events.
