Open House London Weekends
2011
In September 2011 the Foreign and Commonwealth Office once again opened its doors as part of the Open House London architectural festival.
Every year, the FCO on King Charles Street, London, welcomes thousands of visitors during the Open House Weekend to hear about the formation of the office, the historic Fine rooms, the impressive architecture and the symbolic importance of this building in Britain’s past.
Visitors also met FCO staff and heard about life in the FCO today.
You can Download our audio tour to hear details of the architecture and history of the magnificent FCO.
Our flickr channel displays photographs taken during the weekend. You can add your own photographs by joining our flickr group.
Open House London, an Open-city initiative, celebrates all that is best about the capital’s buildings, places and neighbourhoods. Every September, it gives a unique opportunity to get out and under the skin of London’s amazing architecture, with over 700 buildings of all kinds opening their doors to everyone – all for free.
