About

The Garden Museum is the world's first museum dedicated to the history, design, and culture of gardens. Located in a restored medieval church beside Lambeth Palace, the museum celebrates British gardening through exhibitions, historic tools, garden design archives, and rare books.

The museum features a beautiful garden designed by Dan Pearson in the style of 17th-century plant collector John Tradescant, who is buried in the churchyard alongside Captain Bligh of HMS Bounty.

The museum hosts talks, workshops, and a café overlooking the garden.
