No matter what the subject, the Science Museum has a factual and fun way to deliver information.

Imperial War MuseumTo mark the start of the Centenary of the First World War, a transformed IWM London reopened in July 2014 with ground-breaking new First World War Galleries and a dramatic new atrium featuring key stories and iconic objects from their collections. The Imperial War Museum is unique in its coverage of conflicts, especially those involving Britain and the Commonwealth, from the First World War to the present day.

Churchill Museum and Cabinet War RoomsIn 1940, as the bombs rained down on London, Winston Churchill, his cabinet, his Chiefs of Staff and his Intelligence chiefs were meeting below ground in a fortified basement in Whitehall known as The Cabinet War Rooms.
