The Sherlock Holmes Museum
Where every visit solves the mystery of great storytelling
Description
The Sherlock Holmes Museum at 221B Baker Street in Marylebone lets visitors walk through the famous detective's home. It opened in 1990, and the Georgian townhouse is laid out as the place where Holmes "lived" from 1881 to 1904. The rooms are filled with Victorian furniture and items drawn from the stories, and staff in period costume share facts about Holmes and his cases.
For all its small size, the museum packs in plenty of detail, with objects tied to Holmes, Watson and their enemies. The gift shop holds what is billed as the world's largest collection of Sherlock memorabilia, from deerstalker hats to special edition books. Fans of the original tales and the modern versions alike will find something here.
