London in the Second World War

Exhibition coming soon!
aldersgate-street-v1-bomb-1944

In our next exhibition we will explore the experiences of Londoners during the Second World War and the effect it had on the city they knew. Using the London County Council bomb damage maps, personal diaries, original artwork and atmospheric photographs we will tell the story of the people that lived and worked in a city at war.

This free exhibition will run from 24 February 2025 to 3 November 2025. Watch this space to find out more, or sign up to our mailing list to get the latest information!
