Churchill War Rooms London England

Winston Churchill & Tommy Gun*

The Churchill War Rooms are open most days and well worth a visit if you are interested in WWII history or British history. The website recommends allowing 90 minutes to visit this part of the Imperial War Museum

The entrance is opposite the beautiful James Park off Horse Guards Road. We enter a lower level of the War Office Building.


A guard reminds us of the incredible importance of secrecy and safety to the conduct of the war.




Offices include period furniture, wall maps, and depict activities related to the conduct of WWII.














Posters and story boards also give a sense of the war years.
















A bookstore with books, and various gifts are available.
