About
Get a glimpse of what life was like during the Second World War at the Churchill War Rooms, part of the Imperial War Museums.
The Churchill War Rooms became the centre of operations for the British Government during the war and some of the most important decisions about the course of the war were made here.
Head underground to walk the top-secret corridors and learn about Winston Churchill, the charismatic British politician who inspired Britain’s finest hour.
What is there to see?
Soak up the atmosphere in the Cabinet Room where Churchill and his key ministers met with heads of the British Armed Forces to make decisions that influenced the course of the Second World War. The discussions that took place in this room were so secret that the room would be heavily guarded during Cabinet meetings.
Chart the course of the war in the Map Room where the books, maps and calendars remain as they were the last time the room was used in August 1945.
Discover the stories of the hundreds of men and women who worked, ate and slept in the underground War Rooms as the bombs fell overhead.
To discover more about the history of Churchill himself, head to the Churchill Museum.
Personal items and historic artefacts tell the story of his extraordinary life. The interactive exhibits include recorded extracts from Churchill’s rousing wartime speeches, hundreds of letters exchanged with his wife Clementine and even one of his favourite cigars.
