Sir John Soane’s Museum is a national museum, displaying the extraordinary collections amassed by renowned British architect Sir John Soane, including antiquities, furniture, sculptures, architectural models and drawings, and paintings including work by Hogarth, Turner and Canaletto.

Spanning continents and millennia, many objects are on permanent display. Others, including 30,000 architectural drawings, can be seen by appointment at the Research Library.
