Michael Faraday Museum

In 1973 the Royal Institution opened a museum dedicated to Michael Faraday. It is in the main Royal Institution building in Albemarle Street. It is free and is open to the public during weekday office hours.

Explore world-changing science through displays spread across three floors, the stuff of science is woven throughout the RI building. In fact, wherever you go, you'll discover the instruments and people that have made science work for the last two hundred years.

The highlight of the exhibition is Faraday's original 1850s laboratory (not a reconstruction as often cited). Opposite this lab is the current state-of-the-art nanotechnology lab.
