The International Heritage Centre tells the story of The Salvation Army from its origins in the 1860s to the present, both in the UK and across the world.

The Heritage Centre comprises two museums, one at William Booth College in London and one in Nottingham, at the birthplace of William Booth. Our London site also houses our reference library and archive. There is also a virtual museum on salvationarmy.org.uk.

If you would like to visit to use our reading room or view items from our archive collection, please contact us in advance to make an appointment and tell us what you would like to see. 

If you are not able to visit in person, we can also answer enquiries by email, phone or post.
