Take a behind-the-scenes tour of the Linnean Society of London in the heart of central London. Expert staff guide you through the building at Burlington House, which is the birthplace of the theory of evolution.
Visit the bombproof underground strongroom, where the library, archive and biological specimen collections of Carl Linnaeus, the so-called father of taxonomy, are kept safe. Then climb the grand staircase to the library, a peaceful retreat just steps from the busy West End, and see a display of treasured items from the Society's collections.
