The Museum of London documents the history of London from prehistoric to modern times. The museum is located on London Wall, close to the Barbican Centre as part of the striking Barbican complex of buildings created in the 1960s and 1970s as an innovative approach to re-development within a bomb-damaged area of the City of London.
Located a mile or so East of the West End, the Museum of London provides a comprehensive overview of the history of the city. The Museum has recently been renovated to cover the history of London from ancient settlements through to the present day.
