Victoria Tower Gardens

Situated on the bank of the Thames, just at the east end of Horseferry Road, Victoria Tower Gardens is a beautiful green space in the heart of the city that plays host to three thought-provoking monuments (as well as a delightful children’s play area).

Here you’ll meet the iconic suffragette, Emmeline Pankhurst; witness the craft of the master sculptor, Auguste Rodin; and celebrate the abolition of slavery at the Buxton Memorial.
