Wellcome Collection: a free destination for the incurably curious

Wellcome Collection is a unique mix of galleries, and events, the world-famous Wellcome Library, a café, bookshop and conference centre. It brings to life Sir Henry Wellcome's vision of a place where people could learn more about the development of medicine through the ages and across cultures.

Our 'Brains' exhibition is very popular and can be busy at certain times. You may need to queue for entry on Saturdays, Sundays and Thursday evenings and we would recommend avoiding these times where possible.

Admission to Wellcome Collection is free - treat your mind to a visit soon.
