The V&A’s £30 million Medieval & Renaissance Galleries mark the completion of the first phase of the Museum’s £120 million Future Plan transformation. The new galleries are the biggest project the V&A has undertaken since the British Galleries opened in 2001 and have been seven years in the making. Ten new galleries, occupying the entire south east wing of the Museum and covering over 35,000sq ft, display 1800 objects from the V&A’s collection of medieval and Renaissance treasures.
