London--Imperial War Museum


On Tuesday, we visited the Imperial War Museum. The building was built as a hospital in 1815 and continued there until 1930. The dome was added in 1846. The museum was established there in 1936.


There were several children's exhibits, including one about the trenches. We did not go to this one, but we did go to the regular exhibit about the trenches.


When you first walk in, this is the view, at least part of it. There are German V2 bombs, a P-51 and a Spitfire Mark 1A among others....
