The Imperial War Museum has an incomparable collection covering all aspects of twentieth and twenty-first century conflict involving Britain and the Commonwealth.

The Imperial War Museum is also a major national art gallery, a national records archive and a research centre. Much is on display but the Museum is unique in the degree of access it offers to its reserve collections. Professional and private visitors are welcome to study 'behind the scenes' and the Museum deals with over 80,000 enquiries each year. Over 120 people work in the Collections Division, helping to acquire, catalogue, conserve and correctly store or display the items.
To mark the 60th Anniversary of D-Day the five branches of the Imperial War Museum have organised special exhibitions, conferences, events and activities to tell the fascinating stories of the people involved, from generals and political leaders to soldiers and civilians. You can find out about these here, in our special website, where you will also find information about D-Day to download, and examples of art, photographs, sound recordings, and military vehicles from the Imperial War Museum's collection.
