Mona Lisa KentOctober 28, 2021I loved what I learned here. How little did I know about how great his work was. 20 years of unpublished research, 5 editions of a single thought ’the origin of species’ an amazing home, a strong wife

With its unique place in the history of science, Down House, the home of Charles Darwin, is a fascinating place to visit. See the study where Darwin wrote 'On the Origin of Species', still as it was when he worked here, and stroll through the extensive gardens that so inspired the great scientist.
