International Spy Museum

International Spy Museum is at 700 L'Enfant Plaza S.W. It houses devices related to the history and practice of espionage. Interactive exhibits provide an insider’s view into the world of surveillance and emphasize its importance in recent history. Exhibit areas include Spies and Spymasters, Tools of the Trade, Decision Room, Covert Action and Berlin-City of Spies.

Displays throughout the museum present both tried-and-true intelligence techniques and spy technology. RFID (radio frequency identification) technology and interactive stations enable visitors to take on a spy cover identity and test their espionage skills.

Note: Strollers must be parked in the cloak room; a baby sling or baby backpack is available to borrow.

Guided tours are available. Food is available. Time: Allow 2 hours minimum.
