Banqueting House

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

Built by Inigo Jones for James I from 1619, Banqueting House was the only major part of Whitehall palace to survive a devastating fire in 1698. Jones's work was considered to be his masterpiece. In 1649 Charles I was beheaded in front of Banqueting House, stepping to his execution through the large first floor windows to the scaffold.
