200 Whitton Road, Twickenham, London, England, TW2 7BA, United Kingdom Карта

On 26th January 1871 the representatives of twenty-one football clubs met at the Pall Mall restaurant in central London to form the Rugby Football Union. 150 years later this special exhibition chronicles the colourful history of one of the world's oldest sporting institutions.

The exhibition describes how a small group of men created the union and helped arrange the world's first international football contest. It describes how Twickenham Stadium saved English Rugby and the Red Roses blazed a trail for the women's game. Finally, it describes how the RFU adapted to the professional age and Twickenham Stadium became a 24hour 24/7 destination.

Star items include a 1:1000th scale model of Twickenham Stadium, a letter from the King and articles from the very first 1871 meeting.
