Wellcome Collection

ScienceArtClosed · Opens 10amFreeEuston

Die Wellcome Collection bewegt sich an der faszinierenden Schnittstelle von Wissenschaft, Medizin, Kunst und Leben. Aus Henry Wellcomes eigenwilliger medizinischer Sammlung hervorgegangen, zeigt sie heute Ausstellungen, die Themen wie Schlaf, Schmerz, Bewusstsein und Spiel anhand von Kunst, Objekten und interaktiven Installationen erkunden. Der Lesesaal ist ein wunderschöner Ort für stille Betrachtung. Die langen Donnerstagabende bis 22:00 Uhr bieten sich für einen Besuch besonders an. Immer kostenlos, immer überraschend.
