At the eastern end of The Strand, this imposing 19th century Gothic building is one of the senior courts of England & Wales.
You can enter the building for free and take a peek around its 88 courtrooms (without interrupting legal proceedings, of course!) and gaze up at the vaulted ceilings. There are also daily guided tours, which you need to book in advance for £20.00 if you want to know more about the building’s history. Superstitious visitors might enjoy the lore of Room 666, allegedly the RCJ’s coldest room – creepy!
