Bekonscot
A new season and
new attractions at Model Village & Railway
Bekonscot Model Village and Railway
is the world’s oldest and original
model village, welcoming its first
visitors in 1929.
From 1st February Bekonscot started
operating as a charity. This change
comes after significant efforts by staff
and trustees to gain recognition of the
site’s unique historical heritage and
educational value.
To coincide with this change, we
open the doors of our new Education
Centre where visitors can learn more
about the history of Bekonscot and its
many inhabitants. Through displays
and interactive exhibits, you can
discover how our models are created,
learn more about the railway and how

and craftsmanship, Bekonscot fulfils
a childlike curiosity for all things
miniature that exists in us all.
