Madame Tussauds
Marylebone · 0.6 miles
A wax museum on Marylebone Road in central London presents lifelike figures of historical personalities, contemporary celebrities and characters from film and television. Visitors can walk among the recreated likenesses of monarchs, politicians, athletes and fictional stars, while a dedicated history exhibit displays the surviving casts of early models, including the 1765 figure of Madame du Barry and Marie Tussaud’s own self-portrait that greets guests at the entrance. The attraction traces its origins to 1835 when French sculptor Marie Tussaud opened a museum in Baker Street, where the Chamber of Horrors first appeared in advertising in 1843. Overcrowding at the original site led her grandson Joseph Randall to commission a purpose-built building on the current Marylebone Road location; the new galleries opened on 14 July 1884 and the business was incorporated as Madame Tussaud & Sons Ltd. in 1889. Operated today by Merlin Entertainments, the venue forms part of an international chain that expanded to Amsterdam in 1970. Despite fire damage in 1925 and wartime bombing in 1941, many early waxes survive as casts that have been remade for display. Access is step-free, providing wheelchair users with full mobility throughout the exhibition spaces. Opening times are published on the museum’s listing, and the site is served by the surrounding Marylebone area, making it reachable by public transport and local amenities.

Lord Byron
City of Westminster · 0.6 miles
A bronze figure of the Romantic poet stands at Hyde Park Corner, accompanied by his Landseer dog Boatswain. Designed by Richard Claude Belt, the statue rests on a marble plinth that was presented by the people of Greece in recognition of Byron’s involvement in the Greek War of Independence. The monument carries a Grade II listing and serves as a memorial to the writer. The poet is shown in a meditative pose, though the likeness has been judged unfavourable and the work is occasionally cited as the “worst statue in London”. Commemoration of Byron proved contentious after his death; a burial in Westminster Abbey was denied by Dean Ireland, and it was not until 1875, when Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli advocated for a tribute, that the memorial was commissioned. Dispute also arose over the extent of Belt’s contribution, prompting a libel action after a Vanity Fair article alleged uncredited work by a junior studio member. The Byron Society proposed relocating the figure from its island on Park Lane into Hyde Park in 2024, and by August 2026 the statue had been installed at its present position within the park. Situated in the City of Westminster, the monument is reachable on foot from the surrounding streets and forms part of the public landscape of Hyde Park Corner.

Lisson Gallery
Marylebone · 0.6 miles
Contemporary art enthusiasts can explore a globally recognised programme within the Marylebone district of London, where the gallery occupies a purpose-built space of roughly 15,000 sq ft. The venue showcases work by an extensive roster of living artists, including Marina Abramović, Ai Weiwei, Anish Kapoor, Julian Opie and Ai Weiwei, alongside a number of estates and collectives such as Art & Language and the Carolee Schneemann Foundation. Exhibitions frequently feature installations, sculptures and conceptual pieces that reflect the gallery’s long-standing commitment to Minimalism and Conceptual Art, and the space regularly presents works by artists who have been nominated for, or have won, the Turner Prize. Founded in 1967 on Bell Street in Lisson Grove by Nicholas Logsdail, the institution quickly became a pioneer of avant-garde practice, mounting early shows that included Derek Jarman and Keith Milow. Within its first half-decade the programme featured figures such as Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt and Yoko Ono, and in the 1980s it supported the emergence of the New British Sculptors, notably Anish Kapoor and Richard Deacon. The London premises were remodelled by architect Tony Fretton in the late 1980s and early 1990s, providing a flexible environment for large-scale works. Access is via the Marylebone area, with standard London public-transport options serving the vicinity. No admission fee or visitor facilities are detailed in the source material.

The contemporary art venue known as Unit occupies a six-thousand-square-foot space at 3 Hanover Square in Mayfair, with a secondary exhibition and event area called The Stables situated in Covent Garden.

Admission is free and the gallery’s opening hours are displayed on its public listing, allowing visitors to plan a visit without charge. Founded in 2013 by artists Joe Kennedy and Jonny Burt, the organisation began as a three-hundred-square-foot pop-up in Chiswick before moving to a four-thousand-square-foot premises in Soho in 2015. A further relocation took place in March 2018 to Langley Street, Covent Garden, and later that year a flagship Mayfair location opened. The Mayfair gallery hosts exhibitions featuring the gallery’s leading artists, while The Stables concentrates on collective displays, artist development projects and brand-led events. Recent programmes have included group exhibitions such as “Rites of Passage” and solo shows by artists including Esther Janssen, Joshua Hagler and Will Martyr, reflecting the venue’s ongoing commitment to contemporary practice.

Lisson Gallery
Marylebone · 0.6 miles
Located in the Marylebone district of central London, the gallery occupies premises originally opened on Bell Street in Lisson Grove in 1967. The current London space spans roughly 15,000 sq ft and was remodelled by architect Tony Fretton in two phases, first in 1986 and later in 1992. The building provides a series of exhibition rooms that host rotating shows of contemporary art. Since its inception, the venue has presented work by a broad roster of artists, currently numbering close to 80, among them Marina Abramović, Ai Weiwei, Anish Kapoor, Julian Opie and Laure Prouvost. Fourteen of the represented artists have received Turner Prize nominations, with five—Richard Deacon, Anish Kapoor, Tony Cragg, Grenville Davey and Douglas Gordon—having secured the award. Early programmes featured a group exhibition in April 1967 that included Derek Jarman and Keith Milow, and the gallery quickly became known for showing artists linked to Minimalism and Conceptual Art, such as Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt, Donald Judd and Yoko Ono. In the 1980s it displayed many of the sculptors later identified as the New British Sculptors. The gallery’s programme continues to evolve, drawing on its historical emphasis on innovative practice while maintaining a presence in several international cities. Visitors can view contemporary works within the spacious London rooms, which are situated near Marylebone’s transport links and local amenities.

The Merchant Square Footbridge is a moveable pedestrian bridge spanning a canal in Paddington, London. It is composed of five side-by side sections of varying lengths, with offset pivots to accommodate the varying lengths. When opened, the segments are brought to varying angles of elevation.
