The Great Pavilion

The Great Pavilion was a grand exhibition hall built for the 1851 Great Exhibition in London, showcasing technological and industrial innovations from around the world. Constructed mainly from glass and iron, it symbolized modern engineering and design. The pavilion served as a venue to display the latest inventions and cultural exhibits, attracting visitors globally. After the exhibition, it was partly dismantled, with much of its structure reused or repurposed. The Great Pavilion represented Victorian ingenuity and remains a key symbol of 19th-century progress and international cooperation in showcasing human achievement.
