Enjoy a one-hour tour of our ground-breaking First World War Galleries. IWM expert guides draw on our unparalleled First World War collections – the richest and most comprehensive in the world, to give you an in depth look at the events that shook the world 100 years ago.
The galleries feature objects both large and small, including artillery guns, weapons and uniforms as well as personal love letters, photographs, art and film. Highlights include a recreated trench featuring a Sopwith Camel fighter plane swooping low overhead and a Mark V tank looming from above.
Our guides will reveal the stories behind the objects on display – such as the controversial ‘White Feather’; the stuffed head of Tirpitz the pig and even the coat worn by Kaiser Wilhelm II – as they lead you on a private tour through the Galleries. Discover the story of the First World War – how it started, why it continued and its global impact – through the lives of those who experienced it on both the front line and the home front.
