Victoria and Albert Museums
The Victoria and Albert Museum is the world's greatest museum of art and design. The Victoria & Albert Museum opened in 1852 and moved to its South Kensington site in 1857. Its buildings gradually grew from the rear of the site towards the road. The final stage was the new four-storey building along Cromwell Road and Exhibition Road. Designed by Aston Webb, this was built between 1899 and 1909. The facade is decorated with thirty-two sculptures of great English artists, architects and craftsmen. The Victoria & Albert Museum is the greatest museum of applied and decorative arts in the world. Explore the breathtaking permanent collections from the four corners of the globe including fashion and textiles, sculpture, ceramics and glass, metalwork, silver and jewellery, furniture, photography and paintings. Don't miss the British Galeries 1500-1900, telling the story of British design and art from the Tudor period to the Victorian Age.
The Victoria and Albert Museum is open from 10.00am to 5.45p.m. except on Wednesdays, when it stays open to 10.00p.m. Admission to the museum is free.
