Description If you are a Sherlock Holmes fan, you might find this interesting. This is the interior of The Sherlock Holmes Museum at 221b Baker Street, London. Of course, Sherlock Holmes is a fictional character and 221b Baker Street never existed, but according to their website, the house was last used as a lodging house in 1936 and the famous 1st floor study overlooking Baker Street is still faithfully maintained as it was kept in Victorian Times.

Here's a picture of the interior of the 2nd floor study.

conan doley exhausted a fiction person and many people thing he's real. I think that's a great achievement.

Really? I read that in reality the building numbers didnt even extend that far in the time of Conan doyle writing the stories (the largest being 100) and that later in the 1930's, when the numbers were changed and the street extended and such, there appeared a '221', and this room was created to represent the victorian 221B cos people kept writing to the address looking for Mr Holmes lol....

Huge sherlockian fan here...thanks for the pic

That's true. Conan Doyle created a fictious address so that people wouldn't go bothering some poor soul looking for Sherlock Holmes.

I never saw Rupert Everett play Sherlock, but I love his other work. The best Sherlock I ever saw was Jeremy Brett.

It was a lot of fun to go and see this recreation of Holme's rooms.

Have you seen the 360 degree picture of this room at the Sherlock Holmes Museum website? It's very nice. Sorry I can't give you a link, perhaps if you search it on Google.
Very nice pic you posted. You even have the violin in the corner! I love it.
