Museum of London Docklands

Overview

From Roman settlement to the development of Canary Wharf, this 200 year old warehouse reveals the long history of the capital as a port through stories of trade, migration and commerce.

Discover a wealth of objects in state-of-the-art galleries, including Sailortown, an atmospheric recreation of 19th century London; and London, Sugar Slavery, which reveals the city's involvement in the transatlantic slave trade. With ancient finds, unusual objects and fascinating tours, Museum of London Docklands is one of London's hidden treasures.
