The Palace of Westminster was the principal residence of the kings of England from the middle of the 11th century until 1512. By the end of the 14th century the court in all its aspects - administrative, judicial and parliamentary - had its headquarters at Westminster. The Commons assembled in St Stephen's until 1834 when the Palace was burned down. This fire destroyed almost the entire Palace.
The present Houses of Parliament were built over the next 30 years. and remains a distinctive London landmark, recognised throughout the world.
PLEASE NOTE: The Palace of Westminster Reception is subject to security clearance which is undertaken by the Metropolitan Police. The ITiE Symposium 07 does not have any involvement in the security process and the Metropolitan Police decision is final.
