Local museums


Museum of London entrance Museum of London is funded jointly by the City of London Corporation and the Greater London Authority.

The Museum tells the story of London and Londoners from prehistoric times to the present day. It recently underwent a £20m redevelopment and reopened in spring 2010. For details of the collections, exhibitions, events, opening times and how to get there, visit the Museum of London website.

Museum of London also includes Museum of London Docklands and Museum of London Archaeology; together these three destinations seek to inspire a passion for London. Housed in a Grade I listed Georgian warehouse at West India Quay, Museum of London Docklands explores the 2,000-year history of the river, port and its people. Museum of London Archaeology conducts excavations which continually remap our understanding of the city. Based in Hackney, it provides independent professional advice and services to property sector and heritage clients and is the home of the Museum’s extensive archaeological archive, with finds from all over London.
