Welcome to the PK Porthcurno Museum of Global Communications

Nestled on the beautiful coastline of Cornwall, PK Porthcurno, formerly known as the Porthcurno Telegraph Museum, offers a captivating journey into the history of global communications.

Porthcurno received its first cable in 1870 at the Eastern House, which was the beating heart of the Porthcurno telegraph station. Today, you can explore immersive and interactive exhibits that bring its exciting past to life for the family to enjoy. 

During the Second World War, a top secret bunker was constructed where the Allies could operate under the protection of armed guards and bomb-proof doors.

Just outside the museum  and above the sandy beaches of the Cornish coastline, you can check out the Cable Hut. Built in 1929, this modest building is where undersea telegraph cables where connected from across the world.
