London Transport Museum

Enjoy London Transport Museum in the heart of Covent Garden. Lively exhibitions explore over 200 years of history and reveal compelling stories about the influence transport has had on London’s society and culture, and how our travel experiences might change in the future. Transport has played a defining role in the evolution of London’s unique identity.

From the days of sedan chairs and horse-drawn omnibuses through to the world’s first underground railway and the creation of iconic designs such as the roundel and Tube map, the Museum’s lively displays and exhibitions offer fascinating insights into how London works.

At the heart of the story are the people that have kept London moving over the centuries – Victorian pioneers, the avant-garde designers of the early 20th century and the many thousands of transport workers, including those recruited from overseas during the 1950s and 1960s.
