royal albert hall


The Albert Memorial, located in Kensington Gardens, London, is a stunning tribute to Prince Albert, Queen Victoria's husband. Designed by Sir George Gilbert Scott in the Gothic Revival style, it stands as a grand canopy sheltering a statue of the prince. Commissioned by Queen Victoria after Prince Albert's death in 1861, the memorial was unveiled in 1872 and has been a Grade I listed structure since 1970. It represents a significant piece of Victorian era history and is a testament to the era's architectural grandeur.
