Queen's House is a former royal residence built in the 1600s in Greenwich. Commissioned in 1616 by Anne of Denmark, wife of James I, the Queen's House is the first proper classical building in Britain. Designed by Inigo Jones as a private royal retreat, it was completed in 1638 after Charles I had given the House to his queen, Henrietta Maria.
Part of the National Maritime Museum, the House now serves as the principal showcase for the Museum's superb art collection, which includes world-class marine paintings and the largest national collection of British portraits outside the National Portrait Gallery.
The closest station is Greenwich, but can also be access from the Docklands Light Railway and Thames Clipper boats from other parts of London.
See the official Queen’s House website for visitor information.
