It was constructed to house the Natural History Cabinet, by orders of King Charles III. However, the building's final purpose - as the new Royal Museum of Paintings and Sculptures - was the decision of the monarch's grandson, King Ferdinand VII, encouraged by his wife Queen Maria Isabel de Braganza. The national museum del Prado, opened to the public for the first time in November 1819. The Museum's first catalogue, published in 1819, included 311 paintings, although at that time its collection comprised just over 1,510 pictures from the various Reales Sitios (Royal Residences). The exceptionally important royal collection, which represents the foundation of the Museum's collection as we know it today, started to increase significantly in the 16th century during the time of Charles V and continued to thrive under the succeeding Habsburg and Bourbon Monarchs. It is down to them than nowadays we can contemplate in the Museum as greatest masterpieces as The Garden of Earthly Delights by Bosch, The Nobleman with his hand on his Chest by El Greco, Las​ Meninas by Velázquez and The Family of Carlos IV by Goya. The visit will take place in chronological order, starting with the exhibit hall where the masterpieces of J. Bosch (El Bosco) (1450-1516): The Table of the 7 Deadly Sins, The Hay Wain, The temptations of San Antonio, The Stone of Madness and The Garden of Delights, to continue with the rooms devoted to the Greco (1540-1614): The gentleman's hand on his chest, The Trinity, Christ embraced the cross and The Annunciation. Velázquez (1599-1660): The Worship, Drunkards, Equestrian Portraits, the Forge of Vulcan, The Christ, The spinners, Spears and Las Meninas, ending with Goya (1746-1828): The family of Carlos IV Pictures, The Shootings of May 2, Pestles and Black Paintings.

Look down to spy road and pedestrian lifewhizzing over the Bridge while river vessels sail under it – and plan your visit in advance for the truly magical experience of the bascules being raised beneath your feet.  The glass floor measures 11 metres long by 1.8 metres wide and comprises of six panels weighing 530 kilograms each. It is made up of five thick layers and can hold the equivalent weight of an elephant and two taxis! The installation took a 20-strong team to construct it over a six week period.  The Walkways also offer stunning panoramic views of London while each of the 20 bridges featured in our popular and refreshed 'New Great Bridges of the World' display showcase a breath-taking feat of engineering. After learning about the history of the Bridge through animations and displays in the Towers, continue to the Victorian Engine Rooms for the beautifully maintained steam engines that were once used to power the bridge lifts. Over 100 years ago, the Victorians built a bridge that has become one of London's most famous landmarks. High level walkways were built to allow people to cross the Thames whilst the Bridge was lifted to let tall ships sail past - Tower Bridge Today these Walkways act as viewing galleries, giving visitors the most spectacular views across an ever changing London skyline. Walkways & Exhibition: Visitors enter Tower Bridge Exhibition via the North Tower. They are then transported by lift to the top of the Tower (47 metres above the Thames) where they have a unique opportunity to see the Bridge’s steel skeleton from within. A short film explains the history and provenance of the Bridge and then there is the chance to admire the spectacular views – from both covered Walkways. On the east Walkway there are fantastic views of the Docklands and from the west Walkway you can see the new GLA building, the Tower of London, St Paul’s, the city, the Pool of London and Big Ben and the London Eye in the distance. Interactive computerised kiosks and graphic panels explain the significance of the views to visitors, as well as providing more information on the history and building of the Bridge. The interactive material and graphic panels are written in seven languages and an audio loop for the hard of hearing is also in place for the video show. There is another film to view in the South Tower before descending for the short walk to the historical Engine Rooms, included in your ticket price. Victorian Engine Rooms: These provide a fascinating insight into late 19th century engineering. Installed for the completion of Tower Bridge in 1894, these huge, and beautifully maintained, coal-driven engines were used to power the thousands of bascule Bridge lifts performed until 1976. Although lifts are now operated by electricity, the original steam engines are still in place. The Engine Rooms give visitors a chance to experiment with models demonstrating the technology behind the Bridge. There are also some amazing photographs of  Tower BridgeTthroughout its lifetime – including a revealing picture of the heavy steel structure of the Bridge as the stone cladding was installed over it.

Die HMS Belfast ist einer der mächtigsten großen leichten Kreuzer, die je gebaut wurden und heute das einzige Schiff siener Art, das während des Zweiten Weltkriegs im aktiven Dienst gewesen ist. Die HMS Belfast spielte eine führende Rolle bei der Zerstörung des Schlachtkreuzers Scharnhorst sowie der Landung in der Normandie. Bis 1965 im Dienste der Royal Navy, wurde sie 1971 für die Nation als einzigartige Erinnerung an das britische Marineerbe gerettet.   Launch! Shipbuilding Through the Ages Diese neue, familienorientierte Ausstellung wird praktische und computergestützte interaktive Displays sowie Film- und Filmmaterial nutzen, um Techniken des Schiffbaus vom "Zeitalter des Segels" bis zu modernen Vorfertigungsmethoden zu demonstrieren. Die Ausstellung wird sich mit der Wissenschafts-, Ingenieur- und Sozialgeschichte des Schiffbaus in Großbritannien beschäftigen, und die interaktiven Elemente der Ausstellung werden es Kindern jeden Alters ermöglichen, sich zu engagieren und diese Geschichte zu erleben.   Erkunden "Was sollen wir als Gegenleistung für so viel geben?" HMS Belfast ist eines der mächtigsten großen leichten Kreuzer, die je gebaut wurden, und ist nun das einzige überlebende Schiff ihrer Art, das während des Zweiten Weltkriegs aktiven Dienst stand. Während ihrer 32-jährigen Amtszeit spielte sie eine wichtige Rolle sowohl im Zweiten Weltkrieg als auch im Koreakrieg und erfüllte friedenserhaltende Aufgaben in den 1950er und 1960er Jahren. Die HMS Belfast wurde 1971 vor der Zerstörung gerettet und ist heute Teil des Imperial War Museum und das erste Schiff, das seit Nelsons Sieg für die Nation erhalten wurde. Mit seinem Team von Mitarbeitern und Freiwilligen - von denen viele eine erfahrene Crew sind - ist das Imperial War Museum bestrebt, dafür zu sorgen, dass die HMS Belfast immer noch eine Rolle dabei spielt, die Besucher an ihren einzigartigen Platz in Großbritanniens maritimem Erbe zu erinnern.   Geschichte der HMS Belfast Der Begriff "Kreuzer" geht auf die Zeit der Segelschiffe zurück, als große Fregatten von der Hauptflotte getrennt werden konnten, um unabhängig zu fahren. Wie ihr Pendant aus dem zwanzigsten Jahrhundert war der Segelkreuzer ausreichend stark und schnell, um feindliche Handelsräuber anzugreifen und zu zerstören. Während des 19. Jahrhunderts, als die Segel dem Dampf Platz machten und hölzerne Schiffe durch Eisen- und später Stahlschiffe ersetzt wurden, entwickelte sich der Kreuzer zu einem mächtigen Kriegsschiff, das die Handelsrouten des Imperiums patrouillierte und die freundliche Handelsschifffahrt schützte. Nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg (1914-1918) entstand eine einzige Kategorie von Kreuzern, deren Größe durch die Größe ihrer Geschütze angezeigt wurde; So ist HMS Belfast ein 6-Zoll-Cruiser, der für den Schutz des Handels, für Offensivaktionen und als leistungsstarke Unterstützung für amphibische Operationen konzipiert wurde. Bitte beachten Sie: Kinder unter 16 Jahren müssen von einem Erwachsenen begleitet werden. Bitte planen Sie 1½ - 2 Stunden für Ihren Besuch ein.
