Somerset House

This stunning 18th century neoclassical building has recently been renovated and houses celebrated art collections in three exhibition areas: the Courtauld Institute of Art, the Gilbert Collection and the Hermitage Rooms.

Outside, the redeveloped Courtyard is the venue for a summer schedule of concerts and events and during the Christmas and New Year period is transformed into a popular ice skating rink that provides a welcome distraction for Christmas shoppers.

When not holding events, the Courtyard's acclaimed Safra Fountain Court bursts into life with daily displays during the summer months.
