A guide to London’s museums

A.   THE MUSEUM OF LONDON

Follow in the footsteps of the Romans, who founded London 2000 years ago, and go on a trip through

the history of the capital. Take a virtual tour of Victorian London, and see how the city became the planet’s first metropolis or visit the second World War gallery, which tells the story of Londoners’ bravery during

the Blitz. The new modern London galleries will open in early 2010 but until then visitors can still enjoy our prehistoric, Roman and medieval London galleries, as well as events and exhibitions for all ages including London’s Burning, a special exhibition which explores the Great Fire of London. This is the world’s largest urban history museum with over one million objects in its collection.

Opening Times: Daily: 10am-6pm  Open until 9pm on the 1st Thursday of the month.

B. THE NATIONAL MARITIME MUSEUM

Greenwich is the home of the largest maritime museum in the world. It embraces the traditions, the smells and the sounds of the sea that washes its feet and includes some of the most classically beautiful buildings in Britain. Britain’s naval history is illustrated by actual craft and scale models as well as by art and personal relics of the greatest sea-captains of British history. The building also houses the recently updated Royal Observatory. Apart from the museum itself, Greenwich is a fascinating place to explore, with parks and walks by the river.

C. THE VICTORIA AND ALBERT MUSEUM

The Victoria and Albert Museum has long been established as a leading advocate of contemporary art and design. Born out of the Great Exhibition of 1851, the Museum was originally conceived as a "classroom for everyone," to educate the working population and inspire British designers and manufacturers. From this founding principle has evolved the greatest museum of the decorative arts.

Highlights of the V&A include the national collection of water-colours and photography, the Dress Collection, showing fashion from 1500 to the present day, the famous 15th century Devonshire Hunting Tapestries, the examples of the designer furniture, textiles and wallpapers, magnificent selections of Renaissance and Victorian sculpture, and the 20th Century Gallery, dedicated to contemporary art and design.

Founded in 1753 to promote understanding through the arts, natural history and science in a public museum, it is visually the most impressive of all the London Museums, a huge neo-classical building with an exterior consisting of a series of enormous and most magnificent pillars.

You could spend days there just viewing the incredible array of Greek, Roman and Egyptian antiquities alone - including the famous Elgin Marbles from the Parthenon in Athens. There are also stunning treasures from China, Japan, India and Mesopotamia as well as Anglo-Saxon and Roman Britain. Prints and drawings, coins and medals are displayed in a series of temporary exhibitions. The British Library exhibition galleries are also housed within the British Museum.

The museum presents the changing style of the English domestic interior from the 1600’s to the 1950’s.

The displays lead the visitor on a walk through time; from the 17th century with oak furniture and panelling, past the refined elegance of the Georgian rooms and the ornate style of the Victorian parlour, to 20th century Art Deco and post-war utility. The museum and gardens are brought to life through drama, music, workshops, and seminars, with special holiday activities for families and children.
