Handel House Museum online: information and bookings
25 Brook Street was home to the great baroque composer George Frideric Handel from 1723 until his death in 1759. The only composer museum in London, this landmark address is where Handel composed some of the greatest music in history, including Messiah, Zadok the Priest and Music for the Royal Fireworks.
The Museum celebrates Handel's life and works, displaying portraits of Handel and his contemporaries in finely restored Georgian interiors and by bringing live music back to his house. Frequent music rehearsals, weekly concerts and exhibitions bring Handel's world to life. For families there is a ‘Hands-On Family Trail’ for younger musical visitors in addition to an Activity Room with a range of activity sheets and a chance to try on clothes from the museums historical clothing collection.
