About London & the Old Royal Naval College Painted Hall

One of the most important and spectacular baroque interiors in Europe, the elaborate ceiling and wall decorations of the Painted Hall are the work of Sir James Thornhill dating back to the early 18^th century.

The impressive Hall reopened in March 2019, after a two-year National Lottery funded conservation project which has brought its magnificent painted interior vividly back to life. Now is your chance to see this masterpiece for yourself!
