A museum dedicated to England's history of interior decoration, the Geffrye Museum pulls back the curtain on four centuries' worth of home delights. Providing a fascinating history of how we lived with a collection of period rooms reflecting our tastes, the museum showcases the innovations in design and technology which helped English homes become even homelier. Set in the former artisanal area of Hoxton, the range of pieces on display from years gone by makes for a fun and interesting visit - particularly during the annual 'Christmas Past' exhibition where you can discover how we geared up for the festival season in years gone by.
