Free introductory tours, conducted by Guildhall Art Gallery’s team of City Guides, are available every day, from Tuesday to Sunday.
Explore over 350 years of HM Treasury history.
The Bank of England Museum’s current exhibition tells the story of the rebuilding of the Bank in 1925 – but what do we know about the history of the buildings occupied by the Treasury?
This is a history that is full of surprises. HM Treasury, despite being one of the oldest institutions of the British state, does not occupy its own purpose-built offices.
Since the 17th Century, the Treasury has repeatedly moved around Whitehall, London and more recently the rest of the UK – usually in response to unexpected events like fires, wars and pandemics.
Despite this, both the institution and its people – including some of its most famous former staff – have remained incredibly flexible and resilient.
Time: 1–2pm Wednesday June 3
