The Geffrey Museum in London

There are lots of various museums in the world. The museum we want to acquaint you with is quite unique. In the United Kingdom it is the only museum which specializes in furniture

and domestic interiors of town houses. (1)        the Geffrye Museum. The Geffrye

is one of the most friendly and enjoyable museums in London. Situated in the east of the capital, the museum gives a wonderful opportunity to see how English homes have developed(2)to the present day.

The exhibition is designed as a series of rooms. Each room shows furniture, costumes and interiors of a particular period, for example during the reign of Queen Victoria. As you walk along, you can see how the dark and gloomy houses of the Henry VIII (Tudor) era weregradually replaced by the houses of today,

(3)        — it is a real walk through time.

The museum uses former almshouses built by Sir Robert Geffrye in 1715. Almshouses were houses for old people who did not have any money (4)        . Robert Geffrye was a wealthy and successful merchant who made his fortune through trade with India and China. For his good deeds and success in business, Sir Geffrye even served as a Mayor of London. The Geffrye almshouses were beautiful buildings surrounded by big trees and attractive gardens.

The almshouses provided a home to poor pensioners and widows (5) in 1914. Shoreditch, the area where the museum is situated, is well-known for its fine local furniture makers. Originally, the main purpose of the museum was to support and encourage local furniture makers.

Today, the museum is not only a collection of English furniture and interiors but also an active education centre. Children and young people can come here to learn the basics of design, take part in theatre shows, lectures and seminars.

The Geffrye Museum also has a sequence of chronologically arranged period gardens. They highlight the past four centuries of middle-class domestic gardening and explore the connections between home interiors and gardens. The beautiful herb garden where people can see herbs from many countries has over 170 different plants. Most of the plants are traditionally associated with English herb gardens, such as roses, honeysuckles andlilies. They attract insects, (6)        providing a valuable urban habitat and a useful

30learning resource for people interested in the ecology of gardens. Here visitors can get some

information about how different herbs can be used in medicine, cosmetics and cooking.
