Central Criminal Court (Old Bailey) Old Bailey London

City of London

The Old Bailey is where London's most notorious criminal trials have played out. You go there to walk the actual courtrooms, see where barristers and judges handled the city's biggest cases. The building is spectacular: Victorian Gothic meets neoclassical grandeur. Tours give you the real architecture and history, not the surface version. It's in the City, tucked into a corner most people walk past without knowing what's inside. Worth it if you're curious about London's criminal past, or just want to understand how British justice actually works at its most serious level.
