About The Queen's House

The Queen’s House has an extraordinary history; it is the only major remnant of the vanished Tudor royal palace at Greenwich, where Henry VIII and Elizabeth I were born, and the centrepiece of what is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Conceived as a ‘house of delight’ for James I’s queen, this exquisite former royal residence is set against the leafy backdrop of Greenwich Park and is the jewel in the down of the World Heritage Site. Designed by the pioneering architect Inigo Jones, the 400-year old Queen’s House is Britain’s first and finest classical building and a masterpiece of 17th-century architecture. It is now filled with art and design classics both old and new, including paintings by great British and European masters. The House was designed as a place of pleasure and celebration – a tradition that continues today making it ideal for gala dinners, corporate hospitality, award ceremonies and product launches. Part of what makes the House so special is its adaptability. Whether your style is highly contemporary, traditional romance or baroque, the iconic geometric interiors are suited to each – a rare quality in a historic house.
