About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

This fantastic Museum tells the story of the construction and history of the Thames Tunnel, which was built by Sir Marc Brunel and his son Isambard Kingdom Brunel. You'll see models of the tunnel under construction, original artefacts and even a video presentation. Be sure to see The Engine House, which was built a year before the tunnel opened, in 1842. It housed the steam engines used to drive the pumps to keep the Thames Tunnel dry.
