Review:
Imperial War Museum London is the world's leading military museum, originally founded during the First World War as a repository for military artifacts, oral history recordings, documents, and photographic and video material. Today, the museum showcases an immense collection of artifacts spanning from World War I through the present day, highlighted within its award-winning galleries. Six floors of permanent exhibits can be viewed for free throughout the year, though some special rotating exhibits charge an additional admission fee. Collections strive to tell the story of the ordinary people behind each conflict, highlighting military uniforms, vehicles, and weapons alongside works of art, film retrospectives, and oral history projects. Free events hosted at the museum throughout the year include lectures and interactive family-friendly events.
