The Wallace Collection Library and Archives house an extensive collection of around 35,000 books, historical and institutional records relating to the museum and its founders, and several collected archives. The topics represented in the Library and Archives mirror those of the museum: French 18th century fine and decorative arts, arms and armour and the history of collecting are its main subject areas.
Join the Library and Archive staff for a brief tour of the collections, learn about how the Library and Archives support curatorial and external research and admire some of our treasures, including those acquired with FNL’s help.
Limited to 20 places
