Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre
|
| | Name: | Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre | | Description: | The Roald Dahl Museum and Story Centre is in the village of Great Missenden in Buckinghamshire, England, which was the home of the children's writer and short story writer Roald Dahl for many years until his death in 1990.
The museum was officially opened on 10 June 2005 by Cherie Blair and open to the public on 11 June 2005.

The museum houses all of Dahl's main papers: his manuscripts, business and personal correspondence and his 'Ideas Book'. It is run by an independent charity.
