About the Museum
The Museum of London opened in 1976 and tells the story of London from prehistoric
times to the present day.

The museum comprises a series of chronological galleries containing original artefacts, models, pictures and diagrams, with a strong emphasis on archaeological discoveries, the built city, urban development and London's social and cultural life.

The museums galleries are:

London before London (450,000 BC - AD 50)
Roman London (AD 50-410)
Medieval London (AD 410 - 1558)
War, Plague & Fire (1550's - 1660's)
Expanding City (1670's - 1850's)
People's City (1850's - 1940's)
World City (1950's - today)


The museum is free!



Afterwards we will head to the Lord Raglan pub, 61 Saint Martin's-le-Grand for a chat over a drink.

    With over 100 people attending the Museum of London this Saturday I wonder how it will be orgainsed. Will everyone be in one long crocadile? Or will they be split into groups and set off at staggered times?
