London’s newest museum – the Chelsea Pensioners opens next week

London is getting a new museum next week, dedicated to the history of the Chelsea Pensioners, and it’s inside their recently restored stables block.The stables block isn’t just a former horse stables though (although it was), but a grand set of stables designed by Sir John Soane, and they’ve undergone a £12.2 million refurbishment project. As part of that, the stables now include a new museum, which will be free to visit six days a week.
