Go behind the glass
Gain behind-the-glass access and immerse yourself in the War Cabinet Room, which was used by Churchill, his War Cabinet and the Chiefs of Staff during the Blitz.
See the scratch marks still clearly visible on Churchill’s chair, made as he deliberated decisions which would alter the course of history – one of the many details you can only see with Cabinet Room access.
Explore Britain's information hub
Explore the Map Room, Britain’s global information hub during the Second World War.
Marvel at the pinholes on a map showing convoy movements in the Battle of the Atlantic and see the rationed sugar cubes, still intact after more than 70 years, when they were left behind by Wing Commander Heagarty after he and his staff finally departed the bunker.
The experience of a lifetime
Visit Churchill’s bedroom and stand behind the original desk from which he delivered four of his speeches. Learn about his unusual lifestyle while discovering personal objects, including one of his original cigars up-close.
A behind-the-glass private tour of the historic Churchill War Rooms is an experience of a lifetime. Tours last one hour.
