🎧 Listen to Introduction

The buildings and parkland in the London suburb of Greenwich symbolize the artistic and scientific achievements of 17th and 18th century Britain. The Queen's House (designed by Inigo Jones) was the first Palladian building in Britain, while the complex that until recently was the Royal Naval College was designed by Christopher Wren. The park is based on an original design by André Le Nôtre and contains the Old Royal Observatory, the work of Wren and scientist Robert Hooke.
