Description
Housing both the national library and the world's greatest museum of human history and culture, the British Museum is one of the largest cultural buildings in all of Great Britain. History is even visible in the design of the entrance, with its' Greek-style Ionic pillars standing 45 feet tall, with the design based on the temple of Athena Polias at Priene, and the pediment over the entrance is decorated in sculptures of the Progress of Civilization. Inside are hundreds of thousands of square feet of exhibits over five aboveground levels. The library alone holds over 350 thousand books and the rest of the museum is split up into nine departments, each specializing in either a continent or an ancient culture. Objects taken from archeological sites from all over the world can be found here, whether taken by permission or not.
