Science Museum

Science Museum

The Science Museim building was a remnant of the Great Exhibition, the same as the Victoria and Albert. It first housed the art collection, then the patent museum and it was not until 1909 that the Science Museum as we know came into being.

It has numerous collections of aircraft, engines and spacecreaft, but the emphasis is very much on education and particapation. It is deservedly a favourite educational destination, but there are exhibits and activities there to keep the whole family entertained.

The official website says Bring Science to Life and that is as good a description as any to describe the Science Museum.
