Florence Nightingale Museum
As one of the most famous women in British history it is not surprising that Florence Nightingale should have a museum dedicated to her memory. The Florence Nightingale Museum celebrates the woman who almost single-handedly created the modern nursing profession in Britain following her experiences during the Crimean War.
She is famous for answering a call from God and helping hundreds of soldiers during the Crimean War – even now she is referred to as the Lady of the Lamp because of her night time walks tending to sick and wounded soldiers. On her return from this bloody conflict she established the Nightingale Training School for nurses at St Thomas’ Hospital.
Timings: daily 10.00-17.00 (last admission 16.00). Closed Good Friday, Easter Saturday, Easter Sunday, 24-26 December and 1 January.
