According to the stories of novelist Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the Victorian house on Baker Street that occupies the Sherlock Holmes Museum (The Sherlock Holmes Museum) was the home of the main characters of his successful novels, Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson , in the company of her housekeeper, Miss Hudson.

Touring the house
The three-story house in which the detectives stayed between 1881 and 1904 is in the conditions described in the accounts , full of furniture and decorative objects that occupied each of the rooms more than 100 years ago.

The first floor is one of the most striking because it is where Sherlock Holmes's bedroom is located, as well as the office he shared with Watson to fight crime.

On the second floor of the building are the rooms of Doctor Watson and Mrs Hudson, where you can see the belongings of the characters with everything ready, as if they were going to return at any time .

The third floor is occupied by various wax figures that represent some of the characters in the most important cases that the risky detective faced .

For mystery lovers
It is interesting to walk around the building decorated with period furniture, where every little detail fits perfectly with the writings of the famous novelist . We especially recommend the visit for lovers of mystery novels, especially those who grew up with Sherlock Holmes, as it is a unique opportunity to get into the heart of one of his stories .
