Description

Le Crystal Palace était un vaste palais d'exposition en fonte et verre d'abord édifié à Hyde Park pour abriter la Great Exhibition de 1851, la première des expositions universelles. Il fut par la suite démonté et reconstruit, sous une forme agrandie, au sud de Londres, dans le quartier qui porte encore son nom. Il brûla en 1936. Le Crystal Palace fut un haut lieu touristique, qui attirait une population issue de tous milieux sociaux. Sa technique de construction en éléments standardisés préfigure celle de la préfabrication en architecture.

Le nom de « Crystal Palace » lui fut donné par le magazine satirique Punch. Le Crystal Palace Football Club a été formé par des ouvriers du palais.
