Wellcome Collection

ScienceArtClosed · Opens 10amFreeEuston

Il Wellcome Collection si trova all'affascinante incrocio tra scienza, medicina, arte e vita. Nato dall'eclettica collezione medica di Henry Wellcome, oggi ospita mostre che esplorano temi come il sonno, il dolore, la coscienza e il gioco attraverso opere d'arte, oggetti e installazioni interattive. La reading room è uno spazio splendido per la contemplazione silenziosa. Le aperture serali del giovedì, fino alle 22:00, sono un ottimo modo per visitarlo. Sempre gratuito, sempre sorprendente.
