Le musée des Beaux-Arts de Rennes est un musée d'art et d'archéologie français.
Il a été constitué avec, pour fonds initial, les œuvres saisies lors des confiscations révolutionnaires effectuées en 1794 dans les édifices religieux et civils de la ville de Rennes. Il doit cependant la plus grande partie de ses richesses au cabinet de curiosités du marquis de Robien , président à mortier du Parlement de Bretagne, qui y avait rassemblé une importante collection d'œuvres et d'objets de toutes époques. Avec la collection du marquis de Livois à Angers, c'était alors l'une des rares collections provinciales de peinture ancienne.
Le site est desservi par le métro : Station République.

Le musée du transport de Londres, ou le LT Museum montre les différentes moyens de transport situé à Covent Garden, Londres, cherche à conserver et expliquer le patrimoine des transports de la capitale britannique. La majorité des expositions du musée commença dans la collection London Transport, mais depuis la création de Transport for London en 2000, les attributions du musée se sont étendues pour couvrir tous les aspects du transport dans la ville londonienne.
Le musée fonctionne à partir de deux sites dans Londres. Le site principal dans le Jardin Covent utilise le nom de son institution parentale, et est ouvert au public chaque jour, ayant récemment rouvert après une rénovation de deux ans. L'autre site, situé à Acton, est connu sous le nom de London Transport Museum Depot et est principalement un site de stockage qui est ouvert durant les jours réguliers tout au long de l'année.
Le musée a été brièvement rebaptisé le musée de transport de Londres pour refléter une couverture d'image au-delà du London Transport, mais a retrouvé son nom antérieur en 2007 pour coïncider avec la réouverture du site de Covent Garden.

Cyfarthfa Castle is a castellated mansion that was the home of the Crawshay family, ironmasters of Cyfarthfa Ironworks in Park, Merthyr Tydfil, Wales. The house commanded a view of the valley and the works, which ‘at night, offer a truly magnificent scene, resembling the fabled Pandemonium, but on which the eye may gaze with pleasure’. Cyfarthfa loosely translates from the Welsh for place of barking. The reason is hunting dogs were regularly heard in this area of the town, hunting polecats and weasels among others.
Despite appearing to be a fortified building, it is a house built in the style of a large mansion with a large kitchen, bake house and dairy, billiard room, library, and a range of reception rooms. In addition, there is a brew house, icehouse and extensive storage cellars that used to contain over 15,000 individual bottles of wines and spirits such as Sherry, Champagne, Whiskey, Brandy, Madeira Wine, and over 7,500 bottles of port. Adjoining the building were also stable blocks and coach houses. The castle stands in 158-acre of parkland, now called Cyfarthfa Park and maintained by Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council.
