Bletchley Park 18-7-25 107 Hut 8 Alan Turings office
Alan Turing’s office
Here at his desk in Hut 8, Turing took the lead on breaking naval Enigma ciphers - something few thought could ever be done. His mathematical skills also enabled him to break other ciphers, including the complex Lorenz cipher where he used a method that became known as Turingery. Together with he’s fellow Codebreaker Gordon Welchjman, he developed the Bombe machine to help speed up the codebreaking process.
