About

The National Churchill Museum

Story

The National Churchill Museum, on the campus of Westminster College, commemorates the life, times, and distinguished career of Sir Winston Churchill. Located on the site of his Iron Curtain Speech.

Enter the magnificent Christopher Wren-designed Church of St. Mary the Virgin, Aldermanbury. Dating back to the 17th Century, the Church was painstakingly moved from London to Fulton and lovingly reconstructed, stone-by-stone, on the Westminster College campus. Featuring a hand crafted tracker organ and an original Wren pulpit, the Church now stands exactly as Wren's design envisaged in 1677.
Walk through the sculpture Breakthrough, created from eight sections of the actual Berlin Wall by celebrated artist Edwina Sandys, Churchill's granddaughter.

Enter the historic Gymnasium where Churchill delivered his famous Iron Curtain speech, its structure frozen in time waiting for you to walk into the past.

See Franta Belsky's magnificent 1964 bronze sculpture, Churchill.

Wow, quite an unexpected gem! I was told by a relative in nearby Columbia to check out the college next door and it's chapel. Passing through Easter Sunday I didn't expect the museum to be open but it was! Never would I had dreamed that a Christopher Wren church was relocated to mid Missouri, amazing. The Churchill Museum in its basement was a fascinating overview of Churchill and his significance which included a viewing room with the infamous Iron Curtain speech he delivered here in 1946. Excellent and worth the trip.

A ton of history from Westminster College. Very nicely done. Not too big. Enough to keep children entertained as well as a look at Churchill's entire life
