Former Royal Naval College: Entrance with painted hall

Nineteen years of meticulous work were required to bring about the Painted Hall, a masterpiece of the 17th century often compared to the Sistine Chapel for its monumental splendor. This riverside estate testifies to the grandeur of British maritime power through spectacular frescoes and prestigious architecture. The route leads from the painted nave to the 18th-century chapel, renowned for its exceptional decorations. For a touch of the unusual, access to the Victorian snooker room allows you to touch the daily lives of former residents. Accompanied by a detailed audio guide, this walk also includes entry to the museum located at the visitor center. Between Baroque art and naval heritage, this place offers a vibrant reading of history, accessible to all curious visitors.
