Went to the Spy museum in DC today — loved it! a lil thread 🧵 Lots of interactive stations throughout. They also give you a card to start your “undercover mission” that carries through I’ll start with a couple code breakers/makers you might know: Turing and Cardano. AND something called Code Purple

I’ve always been fascinated by George Washington’s spy network. Great exhibit with a short film taking about Washington’s spies.

A few other random things: 9/11, Kennedy vs Kruschev, the Sisterhood at the CIA, and James Lafayette a slave who became a spy during the Revolution and was freed & who took his name from his patron the Marquis de Lafayette.

And lastly a few random pix from the lobby & shop. Would recommend — interesting & well designed but a bit pricey. Definitely good if you’ve been to the other museums in the area or have a fascination with spies like me. 🕵️♀️
