Step inside the Orkney Wireless Museum, one of Orkney’s true hidden gems, packed with vintage radios, wartime communication equipment, and fascinating stories from the early days of wireless technology.
In this video, I explore beautifully preserved WWII radios, radar equipment, naval signalling gear, and early domestic wireless sets that shaped communication during the 20th century. From military technology used during the Second World War to everyday radios that brought news into homes, this small museum tells a powerful story of innovation, secrecy, and survival.
Orkney played a crucial role during the war, and the museum’s collection reveals how wireless communication supported naval operations, air defence, and life across the islands. Along the way, I highlight standout exhibits and share why this museum is a must-visit for anyone interested in military history, vintage technology, or unusual museums off the beaten path.
