Gunnersbury Park Museum

Located in West London's Ealing, Gunnersbury Park Museum is a delightful Regency building that became the first country residence of the famous Rothschild banking family in 1835. Under their ownership, the building hosted many grand social occasions.

Now a museum, Gunnersbury collects and displays the history of the whole of Ealing borough (also Hounslow) in a range of temporary exhibitions. Here you will find local archaeological finds, domestic equipment and costumes, the last hansom cab that worked in Ealing, as well as the Rothschild coaches and original Victorian kitchens.

The grounds offer ornamental gardens including woods and lakes and sports facilities consisting of nine-hole golf, tennis courts with football and cricket pitches.
