London museum dedicated to a roman cult!

London is home to many a museum, from the touristy to the artsy and everything in between. Whatever you fancy learning about, you’re sure to find something to suit your taste.

There are some weird museums in our capital too, like the Viktor Wynd museum or the Sherlock Holmes museum. But one takes the cake: the London Mithraeum.

It’s located underneath the Bloomberg headquarters right in the City of London and is dedicated to the Roman Temple of Mithras. The Cult of Mithras was shrouded in mystery during its time despite its rapid spread across the Roman Empire.
