Imperial War Museum

What's on:

• Imperial War Museum exhibition (10am - 6pm every day)

Why this exhibition deserves to be seen:IWM’s collections cover all aspects of twentieth and twenty-first-century conflict involving Britain, the Commonwealth and other former empire countries. They were intended to record the 'toil and sacrifice' of every individual affected by war. Their collections stretch from the everyday to the exceptional. They contain some of the most important technical, social, economic, political, personal and cultural artefacts relating to Britain and its role in twentieth-century conflict. The scale, depth, breadth and range of media – art, film photographs, sound, new media, writings and objects – contain the reactions, memories and stories of the whole of society.
