EXHIBITION: Churchill Museum and Cabinet War Rooms
Her Majesty The Queen opened the world's first major museum dedicated to the life of
Sir Winston Churchill on 10 February 2005. The Churchill Museum is an integral part of
the historic Cabinet War Rooms, located beneath the Treasury building in Whitehall,
where visitors from all over the world and from all age groups can explore the
character and experiences of the man behind the legend. The museum examines how
Churchill achieved his global iconic status and looks at the changing world in which he
lived his long and extraordinary life.
The museum combines cutting-edge technology, rare and significant historical objects,
and thousands of images, film and sound recordings to tell the story of Churchill's
ninety-year life. Visitors follow the successes and controversies, the highs and lows,
and the joys and sorrows of this pre-eminent and multi-talented writer, soldier and
politician.
The Churchill Museum is housed within the Cabinet War Rooms the very rooms from
which Churchill directed Britain's war effort in the nation's darkest days. Take a step
back in time first, viewing the Cabinet Room and the Transatlantic Telephone Room,
which are left as they were when last used in 1945.
