Tripadvisors tilgang til anmeldelser
Alle Tripadvisor-anmeldelser går igennem et automatisk sporingssystem, før de bliver offentliggjort, for at indsamle oplysninger med henblik på at besvare følgende spørgsmål: Hvordan, hvad, hvor og hvornår. Hvis systemet registrerer noget, der potentielt er i strid med vores retningslinjer for fællesskabet, offentliggøres anmeldelsen ikke.
Når systemet registrerer et problem, kan en anmeldelse automatisk afvises, sendes til validering hos anmelderen eller manuelt gennemgås af vores team af indholdsspecialister, der arbejder døgnet rundt for at opretholde kvaliteten af anmeldelserne på vores hjemmeside.
Vores team kontrollerer alle anmeldelser på vores hjemmeside, som vores fællesskab mener ikke opfylder vores retningslinjer for fællesskabet.

Very interesting museum/art gallery and definitely worth a visit. Would have given 5 stars if it hadn’t been for the very large school party. The kids were very loud, the teachers didn’t appear to make much effort to get them to be quiet and they did spoil the visit to some extent. Surely it would be better to keep school and public visits separate?

Wonder museum to learn more about how foundling children were taken care of in London in the very early times. A great museum to spend 1-2 hours.

I visited this museum on the 6th July for a talk with Jacqueline Wilson. Whilst some of the exhibits may be viewed as sparse, what is there represents the history of the museum beautifully. The staff and volunteers were all absolutely wonderful and took questions with no problems at all.. It was so lovely to see people so passionate about a lesser known element of British history! The talk was beautiful, and as a patron of the museum and a Coram felow, Jacqueline Wilson was an absolute delight to meet and was equally as passionate about history.. she too was enthusiastic about taking questions and looked after the fans who attended like we were old family. I would implore anyone and everyone to visit the beautiful photo exhibition in the basement about some of the Ukrainian refugees who've found solace in Europe since the war began. While saddening, the feeling of hope is inspiring and loved knowing how each woman has found safety.

We signed up to a walking tour of London called 'Drink,Death and Debauchery'. Had a brilliant 2+ hours with a wonderful guide called Bridget whose knowledge of the area and historical information was amazing! Learned so much and finished off at the museum which was included in the ticket price. Highly recommend!

I came across this museum by chance when looking up a walking route from St Pancras to the British Museum on Apple Maps. I’m so glad I did as I’ve just spent a fascinating 90 minutes learning about the history of the Foundling Hospital. The displays are excellent in telling the story of the hospital, including the people who made it happen, and its connection with the composer, Handel. The museum space is spacious and airy and certainly doesn’t feel crowded, unlike other museums in the city. A brilliant insight into 18th century London and very much worth a visit.

Very interesting museum near Russell Square tube station. Well put together with some emotional stories and pictures and brief bios of some of the most recent children who went on to have fulfilling lives. I’d recommend a visit here to future travellers.

I stumbled across this museum when I was looking for places to visit. A great little find and worth a visit. I knew nothing of this subject until this visit and I think it's worth knowing about.
Quite hard reading and watching, in places, but another good example of understanding our past.
Recommend.

I did not know the history of the Foundling Hospital, so this was all new & very interesting! Friendly staff provided orientation/overview then left you to explore at your pace. Two bonuses—there’s a G. F. Handel connection & ‘mini-museum-with-a-museum’ and currently an excellent photographic exhibit about several Ukrainian women who have emigrated to England. Very touching!

There is no café at the attraction but as part of our ticket there was a discount at the white Lion pub and another café nearby. there are also several other places to eat near Russell Square.

How long should we allow to visit this museum?
Skrevet d. 10. april 2017
We expected to stay about an hour, but it turned out to be nearer two. It does depend if the exhibitions that are on are of particular interest to you. I would allow an hour and a quarter anyway, as there are so many small but fascinating items to see.

I attended a fascinating lecture on Thomas Coran and the Foundling Children by Mrs Patricia Atkinson (Halifax) at Idle & Thackley Men's Forum. Is there much about Coram family in the museum?
Skrevet d. 21. august 2015
Yes, information about Coram himself. I don't recall much about his family. It focuses on the foundlings. Well worth a visit. Beautifully presented and with a very nice cafe for a snack!

Do not feel we are the right people to ask this, would hate to say yes & they do not like it, as we are not from that generation.
If you do decided to visit, make sure all 3 read the inside labels on the children's aprons hanging on the pegs, if these alone are worth the visit & make you think. Also do not forget to pick up your free poster of the Hogarth.
Hope we have been of some help to you.
