Today visitors can view the Cabinet War Rooms as they were laid out when the war ended. The furnishing was as exact as it was possible to preserve. Churchill's desk and communications equipment, along with the maps where he plotted the military strategy, can be viewed.
The Cabinet War Room was built in 1938 and became operational in August 1939, just before the outbreak of the war in Europe. They were in used until August 1945, with the surrender of Japan.
