Ready to take a trip through the lens of one of history's greatest detectives? Look no further than London's Sherlock Holmes Museum! This incredible venue is a true homage to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's iconic literary character and offers so much for travelers, and enthusiasts alike. From original manuscripts and artwork from the novel series to photographs of famous actors who've portrayed the detective on-screen; you'll be able to experience first-hand what it was like inside Baker Street with your own personal tour guide – and maybe even spot some clues amongst the exhibits while you're at it! Let me give you an introduction into this extraordinary museum that is sure to leave new fans enthused—and longtime admirers impressed by its cleverly built space.
Visitors can explore three floors dedicated to different aspects of Sherlock Holmes' life. On the ground floor, you'll find exhibits about his fictional cases, such as The Adventure Of The Speckled Band. Upstairs are displays focusing on his family history, lifestyle and relationships with other characters in the novels. Finally, on the third floor you can see original manuscripts written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle himself!
All in all, if you want to experience what it’s like to be the world’s greatest detective – or at least feel like you are for a day – then a visit to the Sherlock Holmes Museum is a must. With its faithfully recreated interiors and impressive array of memorabilia, the museum offers an immersive look into the life and times of everyone’s favorite high-functioning sociopath. So put on your deerstalker cap, grab your pipe and head on down to 221b Baker Street. You might just find yourself solving a mystery or two…There are several ways to get here, my route took me via Kings Cross to the underground Metropolitan line getting off at Bakers Street and from there it is about a 2 min walk.
