Guildhall
Guildhall has been central to the City’s development since the Romans founded Londinium here 2000 years ago. Originally the site of London’s amphitheatre (built AD 70), Guildhall was home to the City of London Corporation and hub of City life by the Middle Ages - an era when the Lord Mayor of London rivalled the monarch for influence and prestige.
