An amazing memorial for a lost love from our greatest Queen of all. Just a 10 minute walk from our house and very close to the young Royal household in Kensington Garden Palace.

Additional Information
Introduction
If ever there was an act of love, it would be the Albert Memorial. Revealed in 1876, Queen Victoria assigned the task to create the monument as a memorial for her late husband. The structure rises 54 meters tall and is full of symbolism, exhibiting sculptures of the institutions Prince Albert influenced, as well as several animals signifying different continents. The Gothic Revival style was an outcome of its designer, Sir George Gilbert Scott.

An amazing memorial for a lost love from our greatest Queen of all. Just a 10 minute walk from our house and very close to the young Royal household in Kensington Garden Palace.
A loving tribute by Queen Victoria to her husband and consort Prince Albert. The gilded statue sits in the Kensington Palace Gardens. Queen Victoria was only a princess when she first was introduced to Prince Albert here at the palace.
Albert Memorial is located in Kensington Gardens. It's a lovely little attraction in the park and is supposed to be a memorial tribute to Prince Albert.
Beautiful memorial at the base of Kensington Gardens, the Albert Memorial is a very "deep" memorial because of the multiple layers of stories it tells: Victoria's love for Albert, GB's height of world colonization with the Union Jack never saw a setting sun, and the wonderful workmanship that is this memorial.
Beautiful Memorial. Many other popular attractions within walking distance. This is a must see. It is with in walking distance to the parliament buildings, Westminster Abbey, Big Ben, Churchill cabinet war rooms, and many other popular attractions.
