More information on Geffrye Museum

The Geffrye Museum explores the history of interior design, architecture and decoration. Each room is set in a different period so, as you stroll through the museum, you can experience the development of interior design through the ages, from the 17th century, through the Georgian period, past the Victorian era, to art deco and the post-war era. And when that's done, you can visit the coffee bar and the shop.
