London, United Kingdom
The British Museum
Two million years of human history in one free building, with all the questions that raises.
The collection spans every inhabited continent and includes objects whose ownership remains genuinely contested — a conversation the museum itself now engages with. The Great Court, Europe's largest covered square, is the calmest place to regroup halfway through.
Opening hours and prices change regularly — always check the museum’s own site before you travel.
