London’s most Unusual Museums

Leighton House Museum, Holland Park

It is may be unprepossessing form outside, but Leighton House Museum has eye-catching opulent interiors, it must rival the most lavish private houses in nearby Kensington. This building was the home once and studio of the Victorian artist Lord Frederic Leighton and now it remains a platform for his spectacular artifacts.

Moreover, the main Arab Hall shows Leighton’s dazzling collection of sparkling Islamic tiles, but many of other ornate rooms are decorated with traditional furniture and tasteful contemporary art shows. If possible for you then you should give some worth timing your visit to coincide with the free tours given at certain times on Wednesdays and Sundays.

Hunterian Museum

The Hunterian Museum is not open now for visit to the public until 2021 due to the redevelopment of the Royal College of Surgeons building. When it will be reopen they look forward to welcoming the public into new, fully manageable spaces that will tell the history and ongoing story of surgery.

Old Operating Theatre, London Bridge

It was used before anesthetics were discovered; this big theater opened here was those who loved to listen about open guts, pain, and all gore. It is located in above St. Thomas Church; the theater is escorted by an exhibition and proper how of related to medical equipment and practices of the Victorian period. The exclusive environment let you shiver because here you see all stuff of a horror movie (sounds funny).

Only Rock 'n' Roll Museum

It is founded by Issac Tigrett and Peter Morton, two American people who wanted a decent burger which full fill their appetite, while living in London, the Hard Rock Cafe opened in 1971. British rock legend Eric Clapton requested the owners to hang his guitar above his preferred bar stool to mark his spot.

When you reach to the only rock ‘n’ roll museum you find stairs going up. Tour guide is not charged it is absolutely free of cost and due to huge crowd you see so many people who guide as well as so many groups of tourist. It may take 20 minutes of yours where you have to wait for your turn so that a member of staff advises you. The building was used as a Coutts & Co Bank so the vault was previously used as a bank vault. There is a small room where you are only allowed to go with your member of staff.
