It's our birthday! 🥳
On 30 June 1894, Tower Bridge officially opened with a spectacular ceremony featuring a royal procession!
📍 Since then, the Bridge has become one of London's most recognisable landmarks: a symbol of the city itself.
What does #TowerBridge mean to you?
English painter William Lionel Wyllie was born #onthisday in 1851.
A prolific artist, Wyllie painted mostly maritime themes, using both paper and canvas, oils and watercolours. He depicted Tower Bridge at least three times, and was present during its opening on 30 June 1894.
