First Official Beatles Museum to Open in London

The London townhouse where the Beatles recorded Let It Be , and, on the rooftop, performed their last concert, will open to the public next year as a museum. Among the promised attractions are a recreation of the Let It Be studio, rotating exhibitions, and a bevy of archival material spread across seven stories. Paul McCartney , who is preparing to release his album The Boys of Dungeon Lane this month, recently returned to the venue. “It was such a trip,” he said in a press release. “There are so many special memories within the walls, not to mention the rooftop. The team have put together some really impressive plans and I’m excited for people to see it when it’s ready.”

Though several unlicensed Beatles archives exist around the United Kingdom—including in the band’s Liverpool hometown—the new one, formally named The Beatles at 3 Savile Row, is the first to be officially ordained by the band and its label, Apple Corps. The building, in London’s Mayfair district, is already a tourist destination, Tom Greene, the label’s CEO, added in the press release. “Every single day, fans are taking pictures of the outside of 3 Savile Row—but next year they can go in and explore all seven floors of the iconic building, including the rooftop where even the railings remain the same from that famous day in 1969,” he said.

Ringo Starr offered a quote, too: “Wow, it’s like coming home.”
