Crypto Museum
Welcome at the Dutch Crypto Museum. At present we are a virtual museum that can only be visited on the internet, but we do organize physical exhibitions regularly. In most cases this will be done in co-operation with other museums. The next exhibition will be from 8 to 12 February 2010 at the TU/e in Eindhoven (Netherlands).

Other examples are the exhibition Secret Messages, held in Museum Jan Corver in the Netherlands between October 2008 and February 2009, and the Enigma Reunion 2009 at Bletchley Park.

The main purpose of the Crypto Museum is to preserve the history of historical cipher machines such as the Enigma, spy equipment and the likes. Some of the items described on this website are part of the collection of the Crypto Museum, but many items have only 'passed by' or have been given on temporary loan for an exhibition. The Crypto Museum has the facilities to research and restore historical equipment. Whenever we have the chance to research a machine we will publish the results on these pages.

We are always interested in acquiring new equipment for the museum. If you have any questions or if you have something to offer, please do not hestitate to contact us.

Exhibition: SuperTU/esday
The Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) has organised a special week on Digital Security. Apart from lectures and workshops there will be a great exhibition of historical cipher machines from the collections of Scryption and Crypto Museum.

Various Enigma and Hagelin cipher machines will be on display alongside older and newer equipment, such as the caesar cipher, the Swiss Nema and the famous Russian Fialka. Part of the exhibition is dedicated to electronic cipher machines developed by Philips, such as the Miniflex and Ecolex.

The exhibition will be open from 8 to 12 February 2010.
