The Royal Society

I recently took part in a guided tour of the Royal Society, led by a knowledgeable and humorous member of their archives team. Situated in a Grade I listed building, this haven of scientific thought previously served as the German Embassy and showcases the architectural brilliance of John Nash. The tour revealed an intriguing fact: the portrait of Charles Darwin here is touted as the most authentic, challenging the National Portrait Gallery's own claims. Equally captivating is the intricately designed ceiling—a feast for the eyes. A rewarding experience for both the mind and the eyes.

Unique event venue steeped in intellectual history and scientific endeavour. An inspiring space to hold an event for 120-150 people.

This is a historical place and society of international repute, hosting numerous events and educational symposiums. Friendly registration upon arrival. A practical place for reference study and validation as well as being a font of knowledge. Likely one of the institutions that has guidedboth national and international progression for more than 100 years.

They host a great public free exhibit every summer where you get to hear from and talk to leading scientists. Includes exhibits for children. Summer Science Exhibition.

Host to many fascinating science events. Absolutely worth a visit.

Everyone should go. For all ages from 9-90 and their summer exhibition is free.

Pleased to be at this place and this time for the summer science exhibition.

An extremely nice place for all kinds of events

Delightful. Truly. The archive was easy to find and staff was very polite. Had an amazing experience and plan to be back soon.

Huge fan of the YouTube channel Objectivity.
Watch some of the videos and identify the rare and historic objects that are stored in the vaults of the Royal Society.
The librarian, Keith, was extremely friendly and you just have got to be impressed by his knowledge on those objects.

Absolutely loved my trip today at the congregation of projects! The people at the stall of wooden skyscrapers were really helpful and answered all my questions leaving me intrigued. 😁🌳🌲🏗

A beautiful venue with so much history. Perfect location, lovely staff. Any event you'll organise will be a success.

Great venue and location

its one of the oldest scientific societies in the world and a must visit for any science fan...i have been to a number of events hosted at this amazing venue from Cafe Scientifique to the Summer Science Exhibition to the free public lectures...

Excellent exhibition well worth visiting grandkids loved it

A Society that serves Society!!! Annual Summer Science absolutely wonderful. And it's free!

Great sessions at Summer Science Exhibition!

Excellent technical presentation. The real time text was accurate and very nearly word perfect in great contrast to the miserable efforts of the BBC and ITV congratulations

A lovely historical building with an amazing story.

Excellent venue for scientific meetings. Their programme of events and invited speakers are both top notch.
