Heritage
How do you think the unique heritage of the Palace of Westminster should be preserved and celebrated?
Perhaps you’re interested in the building’s iconic architecture, its stunning decoration, the potential for archaeological discoveries, or the important and developing collections of furnishings, art, and documents.
Between June and July 2021 we asked for your views and ideas about how we can celebrate the building’s heritage – in all its forms – in ways which are interesting and relevant for people in different communities across the UK.
The views and ideas shared will help to inform the detailed and costed restoration and renewal plan. You can look at what people said below. You can also sign up for information on further activities that will follow in due course.
