The Old Royal Observatory Garden

The Old Royal Observatory Garden is a historic site in the heart of Greenwich Park that impresses with its unique location in a semicircular hollow. The garden, formerly known as the Lower Garden, has developed in stages since 1675, reflecting the changing needs of the observatory and its astronomers.

It is an ideal place for astronomy history and navigation enthusiasts. Nearby is Flamsteed House, named after the first Royal Astronomer, where historic astronomical instruments and artifacts can be admired.

The garden also offers a peaceful oasis for those seeking respite from the hustle and bustle of the city.
