Start typing to see suggestions or browse Australia
The Monument was built in 1677 and designed by Sir Christopher Wren and Dr Robert Hooke to commemorate the Great Fire of London and has been attracting visitors for over 300 years.
The Monument is the tallest isolated stone column in the world and stands at 202 feet high, which is equal to the distance between the base of the column and the baker's house in Pudding Lane where the Great Fire of London supposedly began.
The simple Doric column is made from Portland stone, and topped by a flaming urn of copper to symbolise the Great Fire. After climbing the 311 steps to the top to take in the panoramic views visitors receive a certificate of achievement.
