KQ Private View | Charles Dickens Museum
Join the Knowledge Quarter this festive season for an exclusive before-opening experience at the Charles Dickens Museum - the London home where Dickens’s literary magic first came to life.
Situated at 48 Doughty Street, this beautifully restored Georgian townhouse was once home to Charles Dickens, his wife Catherine, and their young family.
It was here that Dickens completed The Pickwick Papers, wrote Nicholas Nickleby, and created one of his most famous works, Oliver Twist - the stories that would make him a household name and win the admiration of Queen Victoria herself.
Today, the museum is arranged as though Dickens has just stepped out, with intimate rooms filled with his own furnishings, portraits, and treasures. Step back into 1837 and experience the atmosphere of a bustling Victorian home, lit with warmth and history - a world that inspired A Christmas Carol and the timeless spirit of generosity and joy it celebrates.
