Museo de la Asociación Británica de Óptica

Experiencia fantástica: Excelente recorrido por una colección fascinante. Reserve a través de la página web para acceso gratuito al museo

Experiencia fantástica: Hay miles de artefactos históricos de óptica con sus grandes historias y datos interesantes empaquetados en esta pequeña joya oculta, convenientemente ubicada en el centro de Londres. Nuestra visita al museo fue organizada por solicitud de correo electrónico con Neil. Él fue bastante apasionado y conocedor del campo y de cada artefacto en el museo. Es un gran lugar para visitar para cualquiera que tenga curiosidad sobre este tema.

Experiencia fantástica: As part of the Heritage Open Days a very interesting place to visit, knowledgeable staff on hand to explain exhibits, also allowing you to try glasses on or pick them up. Never seen so many unusual ones. An enjoyable morning out.

Experiencia fantástica: The museum's well-curated themed exhibitions provide a deeper exploration of specific subjects, offering a comprehensive understanding of the topic.

Experiencia fantástica: Perfect

Experiencia fantástica: One of those hidden gems that are a delight to stumble upon. A wunderkammer of diseased eye models, optometry devices, and a huge range of spectacles through the ages. Free tour lead by Neil was very inSIGHTful too.

Experiencia fantástica: Fascinating! and a huge collection. Well maintained. There are always new exhibitions too see. This is one of my favorite museum in London.

Experiencia fantástica: My friend found this via Google. We were in town for a matinee theatre and were looking for something to do before hand. It is so interesting and not at all what we expected. Neil was our guide, we were really lucky to book a tour on the day. The museum is small but it has so much to see and learn about. Neil is really amusing and has such a depth of knowledge and passion for the subject. The tour included a history of optical evolvement and also offersthe chance to see examples of the first spectacles that takes you through to an exhibit of the queen mother's glasses! This is a free tour, but please make the optional donation requested. I definitely recommend a visit, something really different and an absolute hidden gem.

Experiencia fantástica: I went today with my sister and a best friend and was so lucky to get in. We were privileged to be taken round the museum by Neil. It was absolutely fascinating. Neil knew so much and was a fountain of knowledge and very amusing with lots of antidotes to keep us entertained. It was brilliant and I learnt so much. I definitely recommend a visit you wont be disappointed

Experiencia positiva: A sight to see in London. It is a heaven for puns and wordplay - but if you have an interest in the eye and the history of optometry this is the place to have a look at. I suggest you book the guided tour as the exhibit is very dense and you can easy overlook something. Remember to call in advance to book a tour.

Experiencia fantástica: A fascinating history of eyewear and sight.

Experiencia fantástica: A little bit of "hidden" London of particular interest to anyone who wears glasses or contacts. No one can complain about modern eyewear after seeing what the Victorians endured. The collection, which covers several hundred years of equipment is helpfully explained by the curator. Perhaps see this after visiting the nearby National Gallery or Ben Franklin House. Call ahead to make sure a guide is there.
