Imperial War Museum

The headquarters of the Imperial War Museum is situated in Lambeth[?], London, England. It was founded in 1917 for the specific purpose of commemorating those who had died during the First World War.

The museum has several other branches, including a new building in Manchester (opened 2002) and an air museum at Duxford[?] in Cambridgeshire. The museum concentrates on conflicts of the 20th century and later.

The museum incorporates a library, photographic archive, and art collection.
