Back in time to World War II - The Churchill War Rooms While a raging Hitler was torpedoing through the world, million others suffered the brunt of war. Rations were scarce, families were apart, and there was much hatred and loss. As London struggled to hold fort during crumbling times, their leader, Winston Churchill, sought out a solution once and for all. He, along with several Cabinet ministers went underground, into a secret bunker, where a plan was set in motion for Hitler’s downfall in order to finish the war. The Churchill War Rooms remain unchanged in time, with pots still on stoves, maps still hung on walls, and beds still made up. Gather a deeper understanding of the man behind the fall of Hitler. Winston Churchill was loved and hated in equal measure, but his efforts as a wartime leader don’t go amiss. Learn about the man whose words moved an entire nation to change the course of history. Interactive displays in the Churchill Museum, with videos, radio broadcasts, and newspaper clippings give you a closer peek into life during wartime London. Hear Churchill’s speeches and testimonials of men and women who worked there with the help of an audio-guide. With a small group of only 20 people or fewer, your tour of the Churchill War Rooms will be more personal and unhurried.
