 Most museums in London are free of charge.  Free museums are, for instance, the British Museum, the National Gallery and the Tate Gallery. (Britain and Modern).  One has to buy a ticket for other museums, for example: Madame Tussauds, Victoria and Albert Museum, The Tower of London – The National Treasure.

 One of the world's oldest museums, the British Museum is vast and its collections, only a fraction of which can be on public display at any time, comprise millions of objects.  It is mainly an archeological museum.  The Great Court is a large and beautiful covered piazza, designed by Foster and Partners, surrounding the free reference library in former Round Reading Room.

 The British Museum contains, among many other things, two must-see masterpieces:  The Rosetta Stone and Lord Elgin’s Marbles  The former is a stele which allowed the decoding of Egyptian hieroglyphics.

 These marbles are the Parthenon Marbles, mainly sculptures, which Thomas Bruce, Seventh Lord Elgin, gathered during his service as ambassador to the court of the Ottoman Sultan in Istanbul.  In practice, the term is commonly used to refer to the stone objects he gathered or - according to critics- looted - from Athens between

 Situated in the heart of London, precisely in Trafalgar Square.  It’s a neo-classical building was founded in 1824 to display a collection of just 36 paintings, today.  The National Gallery is home to more than 2,000 works. There are masterpieces from virtually every European school of art.

 Among the extraordinay pieces of art, the National Gallery boasts the presence of a very famous painting of the Renaissance:  “The Ambassadors” by Hans Holbein The Younger(1533).  The painting is characterized by a visual device called anamorphosis.

 Probably the most British museum in London.  It is situated in the south of London in an area called Pimlico.  Its name comes from the name of the collector of works of art who founded the gallery, Mr Tate, the rich owner of a sugar plantation.

 The Tate Gallery is the home the most important British painters: Turner, Constable and, above all, the Pre-Raphaelites.  The latter consists of a brotherhood of artists (painters, poets, designers) founded in 1848 who considered the art before Raphael as the ideal one and tried to reproduce it.
