Store Uret

Source: Pascal Brackman

Description

De fleste besøgende er dybt imponeret over den lange, neo-gotiske facade af Parlamentet, parlamentarisk bygning. Symbolet på London er det høje klokketårn med sin imponerende klokke kaldet Big Ben.

Navnet stammer fra den store klokke indeni. På hver fulde time kan man høre et par toner fra Handels Messias. Den samme melodi bruges af nyhederne fra BBC.

Hvis du ser lyset over uret tændt, ved du, at Underhuset stadig er i session.

I efteråret 1834 blev de gamle parlamentsbygninger ødelagt af brand. Den arkitektoniske konkurrence, der blev lanceret senere, blev vundet af Charles Barry med et neo-gotisk design, der tilfredsstillede tidens smag. Arbejdet, som begyndte i 1840, ville tage 20 år at gennemføre.
