Crystal Palace Local Information
Crystal Palace is a town in London and also the name of an old
glass building which stood at the top of Sydenham Hill.
The Palace was designed by Joseph Paxton to house the Great Exhibition.
It was originally erected in Hyde Park and closed in 1851. It was
later transported to the top of Sydenham Hill. The Palace burned
down in 1936 in unexplained circumstances.
Although the Palace is no longer there, the park where it stood
has a wide range of things to see and do including an athletic stadium,
an open air concert bowl, a sports centre and a boating lake.
A major attraction is the dinosaur park, built in the early 1850’s,
with large Victorian concrete and cast iron dinosaurs. It’s
thought these may have been the inspiration for Michael Crichton’s
novel Jurassic Park! The dinosaurs fell into disrepair during the
1980’s and 90’s but were renovated using a grant from
the UK Lottery in the early 2000s.
Crystal Palace Railway Station is served by trains from two major
London stations, Victoria and London Bridge. Although not currently
on an underground line, it is rumoured that the Jubilee line may
include Crystal Palace in the future.
