Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum, London

The Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum traces the origins of the modern tennis game over the last century or so. You can enjoy this museum even if you aren't a tennis lover, as it captures the spirit of tennis excellently. Exhibits include displays on the social history of tennis, how modern equipment has been developed, interactive quizzes, and a vast collection of tennis paraphernalia. Several tennis stars have donated clothing and equipment for display. The exhibit illustrating how fashions in tennis-wear have changed over the last century is particularly interesting. The gift shop sells souvenir gifts, books and, for the real enthusiast, Wimbledon leisure wear.
