Experience Christmas Past at the Geffrye Museum

The Geffrye Museum on Kingsland Road in East London is a museum of the domestic interior, founded nearly 100 years ago to explore the way the insides of our homes have changed. This theme really comes alive each Christmas when its displays can be adapted to help us things about how the way we celebrate the season has changed over the centuries and decades.


The museum's displays range from 1600 to present, exploring decorations, trees, feasts, greenery, parlour games, cards and cocktail parties through the ages.
