Today it is housed in a building from the seventies, part of the largest cultural center Barbican Center, it was renovated in 2010 by an English studio, WilkinsonEyre. The Museum of London develops around the Sackler Hall, a large common space, with digital information stations that is also used for interesting contemporary art exhibitions.

The permanent exhibition is divided into seven sections in chronological order that trace the history of London from prehistoric times to the present day:

London before London, Roman London,
