Open House London is in its 23rd year and is a city wide celebration of the buildings, places and neighbourhoods where we live and work under the theme of ‘revealing great architecture’. This weekend of activity helps people learn about and advocate for the value of good design through direct experience of great buildings and places. A quarter of a million people take part in this unique initiative visiting over 800 featured sites.
Burlington House has been a cultural campus for arts and sciences since 1874. The original Palladian mansion was home to the Earls of Burlington, but was later entrusted to the care of six organisations concerned with the artistic, historic, natural and scientific cultural environments. The 18th-century mansion and 19th-century additions around the courtyard are fascinating works of architecture imbued with the history and significance of their current inhabitants. Open House visitors may spend Saturday exploring Burlington House to learn about the building and each of the six unique organisations: The Geological Society of London, The Linnean Society of London, the Royal Academy of Arts, the Royal Astronomical Society, the Society of Antiquaries of London and the Â鶹AV.
This event is free to attend - no booking is required.
The Â鶹AV will be open between 10am - 4.30pm.
