Within walking distance of the abbey, you will find this great little award-winning Museum situated in the village of Great Missenden.
“Our founding objective as a charity is to further the education of the public in the art of literature and creativity, by running a museum and literature centre based on the works of Roald Dahl. We think that making stories is part of what makes us human, and everyone is a story maker. We use our collection and location – Roald Dahl’s archive, in the village where he found inspiration in the everyday – to help our visitors unlock the stories we all have inside.”
