A Grand Day Out: Discovering Darwin at Down House, Kent
Trace Charles Darwin's roots back to his home in the pretty Kent countryside and celebrate this revolutionary naturalist's 200th birthday. Spending the last 40 years of his life in this Georgian villa, it is here that he researched and penned arguably the most influential book of our time, On The Origin Of Species.
Experience life on board the HMS Beagle in a reconstruction of Darwin's cabin from which he spent five years exploring South America's rich coastline. It was here each night that he sat painstakingly recording the day's findings. You can view his mesmerising and influential note-takings detailing the specimens and creatures that fascinated him.
On The Origin Of Species, as we know it, might never have been written. Darwin was nearly pipped to the post by professional bug collector Alfred Russel Wallace, who in 1858 sent Darwin a paper outlining his similar theory. Less than a year later, Darwin mustered the courage to publish his life-changing findings.
Open from 11am to 5pm, Wednesdays to Sundays and Bank Holidays. Tickets: £8.80, adults; £4.40, children; £7.50, concessions; £22, family ticket (19,
