Banqueting House

The Banqueting House, Whitehall, is the only remaining component of the Palace of Whitehall in London. The building is important in the history of English architecture as the first structure to be completed in the neo-classical style.

Banqueting House was completed in 1622 at a cost of £15,618, 27 years before King Charles I of England was beheaded on a scaffold in front of it in January 1649.

Today, the Banqueting House is a national monument, open to the public and preserved as a Grade I listed building.
