Old Royal Naval College

The Old Royal Naval College is at the heart of Maritime Greenwich. 

Designed by Sir Christopher Wren, this magnificent twin domed Baroque building is one of the most famous landmarks of London’s south bank, and is home to the impressive Painted Hall.

Visit the Painted Hall at the Old Royal Naval College, Greenwich. Admire Christopher Wren's stunning architecture and the vast decorated interior; a masterpiece of English baroque art.

Paintings are rich in symbols of religion, monarchy, maritime power, navigation and trade, and the 5683 sq ft ceiling painting is the largest in the country.

The £8.5 million Painted Hall conservation project has reversed years of decay and conserved 'the UK's Sistine Chapel' for generations to come.
