ALBERT MEMORIAL
Located south of Kensington Gardens, opposite the Royal Albert Hall, this neo-Gothic memorial was commissioned by Queen Victoria to commemorate her husband and great love Prince Albert of Saxony Coburg Gotha. It measures almost 50 meters and was completed in 1872. A gilded statue depicts Albert holding a catalog from the 1851 Universal Exhibition. The Kensington district, also known as Albertopolis, owes a great deal to Prince Albert, who thought up and supported the creation of the world's greatest museums, including the famous Victoria & Albert Museum.
