PLAN YOUR NEXT VISIT
On Thursday 3 December, we're reopening the doors of three of our museums.

We can't wait to welcome you back to IWM London, IWM Duxford, and Churchill War Rooms, each with new displays unveiled this year.

Our opening times will be Wednesday to Sunday each week until further notice, with some exceptions during school holidays. Booking on our website is recommended to avoid disappointment.

We are a charity, and now more than ever we need your support to ensure we can continue to tell personal stories and share experiences of conflict for current and future generations. 

Every ticket, donation and purchase help us tell the stories of those affected by conflict, launch our ground-breaking exhibitions and deliver our world-class learning programmes.
 
 
CHURCHILL WAR ROOMS
Open 9.30am – 6pm (last admission 5pm), Wednesday to Sunday

See our brand new exhibition Wartime London: Art of the Blitz on display for a limited time only. We shine a new light on the experiences of ordinary Londoners forced into new patterns of living by the Nazi air raids. There’s never been a better time to discover the secrets of Churchill’s Second World War.

IWM NORTH
Unfortunately, with Greater Manchester placed in tier three, it isn’t possible for us to reopen IWM North at this time. The Government has committed to regularly reviewing each region’s tier and will continue to reassess the current classifications.
