Did you know
The building the museum occupies actually sits between numbers 237 and 241 Baker Street and carries the 221b address by special permission from the City of Westminster, granted because that number never officially existed on the street when Arthur Conan Doyle wrote the stories.
Local tip
Go early on a weekday since the museum is small and admits visitors in timed groups, and buy tickets on site rather than expecting online booking, as queues form quickly once tour coaches arrive.
