Museum Exhibits

Every item held in the collections of the world's museums and art galleries has some special interest or value, such as James Watt and Our World, a permanent exhibition at London's Science Museum. James Watt's workshop has been reconstructed exactly as it when the engineer used it. The exhibit has been installed in such a way that visitors can see Watt's tools and note books, his work benches and working conditions. Definitely, worth a visit!

The V&A has several permanent exhibits including:

Theatre and Performance Gallery

Medieval and Renaissance Galleries

Ceramics Gallery
