About Handel & Hendrix in London
Handel & Hendrix in London is a one-of-a-kind museum that celebrates the lives and music of two of history’s most iconic musicians—George Frideric Handel, the baroque composer who lived at 25 Brook Street from 1723 until his death in 1759, and Jimi Hendrix, the 1960s rock legend who lived at 23 Brook Street in 1968–1969.
Separated by just a single wall and over 200 years of musical evolution, their neighbouring homes have been meticulously restored and now form a fascinating museum experience. Visitors can walk through Handel’s Georgian home and Hendrix’s colourful flat, both brought back to life with period furnishings, personal artefacts, and immersive exhibits.
After undergoing major restoration, the museum officially reopened in May 2023 with brand-new displays, interactive experiences, and an expanded visitor offering, making it a must-see cultural destination in London.
