Spyscape

Spyscape in New York City is a privately funded interactive museum devoted to the fascinating world of espionage. It is located in Midtown Manhattan, just a few hundred yards south of Central Park, at the corner of Eighth Avenue and 55th Street. Designed by the British investment group Archimedia, the museum opened in 2018 and covers an area of roughly 64,000 square feet. Here you can explore different aspects of intelligence work, such as deception, hacking, and cyberwarfare. The exhibition is especially notable for its hands-on approach, which lets you take an active part. You can step into the shoes of James Bond, for example, or encrypt and decrypt secret messages yourself, making for a one-of-a-kind and educational visit.
