Press
IWM London, located on Lambeth Road, explores how the history of modern conflict affects us all, from the front line to the home front. Exhibits range from objects of war to photographs and personal letters; they include film and sound recordings and some of the twentieth century's best-known paintings. Many of the world’s leading experts on all aspects of modern conflict work at IWM London.
Our latest exhibitions include Horrible Histories®: Spies, Architecture of War and IWM Contemporary.
IWM London is transforming, and is partially open until Summer 2014, when we will be launching our new First World War Galleries to mark the Centenary of the First World War, revealing our new reconfigured atrium with large object displays as well as new shops and a park-side café. Find out more at Transforming IWM London.
