Salomons Estate Museum

When you visit the Salomons Estate, be sure to put aside some time to pop into the museum. Formed from two ground floor rooms, and packed with fascinating exhibits that chart the history of three remarkable generations of the Salomons family, the Salomons Estate Museum helps bring to life the people and events that helped shape this 'mansion of many marvels'. The museum's unique collection of paintings, photographs and mementos documents the history of the lives of Sir David Salomons, the first Jewish Lord Mayor of London, Sir David Lionel Salomons, a keen scientist and engineer and pioneer of road transport, and Captain David Reginald Salomons, whose tragic story was dramatised in the musical 'The Dreamers'.
