Free

No admission charge for anyone.

What to know

VERIFIED FREE, permanently and to everyone - as almost every national museum in Britain is. Eight million objects, of which the Rosetta Stone, the Parthenon sculptures and the Sutton Hoo helmet are the ones people come for. Special exhibitions charge. THE COLLECTION IS ALSO CONTESTED - several governments are asking for objects back, and the museum says so in its own labelling. Book a free timed slot at busy periods.
