About
One of London's most friendly and charming museums, the Museum of the Home presents the history of the English domestic interior from 1600 to the present day.
A series of period rooms containing fine collections of furniture, paintings and decorative arts reflect the changing tastes and styles of the urban middle classes. The museum is set in delightful 18th-century almshouse buildings with attractive gardens, including a walled herb garden and series of period gardens.
A full programme of special exhibitions on related themes runs throughout the year.
