Winston Churchill had his own private bedroom in the Cabinet War Rooms, located next to the Map Room. The Prime Minister was known to use it for work, to host meetings and not forgetting his hour-long afternoon naps.
Notice the circles marked on the map opposite Churchill’s bed, these indicated possible landing sites for a German invasion.
Get up close to where the famous war leader slept and see where he had his most private of moments.
The Map Room was in use 24 hours a day, it was here that vital information for King George VI, Prime Minister Churchill and the armed forces was collated. It was constantly staffed by one officer from each the Royal Navy, Army and Royal Air Force. Walk through the rooms that once had strictly limited access, notice the tiny pinholes and markers left behind on the map walls and read the reports and charts depicting information from Women in Service to Deaths in Britain.
