Handel House Museum is a beautifully restored Georgian townhouse where the famous composer George Frideric Handel lived for 36 years and composed timeless masterpieces such as Messiah and Zadok the Priest. The elegantly refurbished interiors create the perfect setting for 18th-century fine art and furniture, evoking the spirit of Georgian London. Portraits and paintings of Handel and his contemporaries illustrate Handel’s London life and the House is as vibrant with music as it was in Handel’s day. Weekly Thursday evening recitals and regular weekend events are held in Handel’s intimate music room (booking recommended).
