HISTORY UK

This monument to the beloved husband of Queen Victoria celebrates Albert as a patron of the arts , science and industry. Its enormous cost (about £10m today) was met by public donations.

Shaun Weston

Amazing art ! This memorial goes some way to explaining how Victoria felt about Albert – it's so different to what you would normally find in London. Mesmerising.

Carl Griffin

Stunning memorial to Queen Victoria's husband . Lavishly decorated with gold, mosaics and marble .

Britannica

It was designed shortly after Albert’s death by George Gilbert Scott (who was later knighted) and completed in 1872, although the central statue of Prince Albert was not placed upon it until 1876

Enzo Martinelli

Stunning monument to the memory of Prince Albert . Would we have something similar for Prince Philip?

Karen

Beautiful and so centrally placed as a reminder of how much Victoria loved Albert.

One of the finest works in England and not promoted enough. Visit it in the morning to appreciate all the details.

Las cuatro esquinas del monumento simbolizan los continentes en que Reino Unido era hegemónico, revelando el esplendor británico de la época.
