Sherlock Holmes and Doctor John H. Watson lived at 221b Baker Street (where the Sherlock Holmes Museum is located) between 1881-1904, according to the stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. The house was last used as a lodging house in 1936 and the famous 1st floor study overlooking Baker Street is still faithfully maintained as it was kept in Victorian Times.

  • Apollo's Insights AI-Generated

    The Sherlock Holmes Museum in London, England offers visitors a chance to step into the world of the famous detective. Located at 221B Baker Street, the museum recreates the fictional home of Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson as described in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's stories. Visitors can explore the Victorian-era rooms filled with period furnishings, memorabilia, and wax figures. Many guests appreciate the attention to detail and the authentic atmosphere that brings the stories to life. The museum's small size allows for an intimate experience, though it can feel crowded during peak times. Some visitors find the entry fee a bit high for the relatively brief experience. While hardcore fans of the detective stories tend to enjoy the museum immensely, casual visitors might find it less engaging. The staff, often dressed in period costume, are generally knowledgeable and add to the experience. However, the museum's popularity can lead to long queues, especially during tourist seasons. Overall, the Sherlock Holmes Museum provides an nostalgic and atmospheric visit for literature enthusiasts and fans of the detective, but may not appeal as strongly to those less familiar with the stories.
