Sherlock Holmes Museum

Open as a museum dedicated to the life and times of Sherlock Holmes the interior has been faithfully maintained for posterity exactly as described in the published stories by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.

The house was built in 1815 and is listed by the Government to protect its architectural and cultural heritage. Visit the famous study overlooking Baker Street, sit in Mr Holmes's armchair by the fireside, enter his bedroom adjoining the study and browse through a comprehensive collection of memoribilia in this museum devoted to some of the best crime novels ever written. But please bring your own pipe to smoke!

A unique collection of gifts and antiques is available from the Museum's interesting and rather quaint souvenir shop on the ground floor of the house.
