“A really unique experience emerging from the chimney in the lift. We timed it perfectly at sunset, making the 360° views even more spectacular. The short museum beforehand was also very informative and added to the experience.”

An icon reborn

Powering London, powering culture, powering design

Battersea Power Station’s silhouette has long been a prominent fixture on the London skyline. Built in the 1930s and operational as a power station until the early 1980s, at its peak, it generated one fifth of London’s power. Since then, the building has provided us with a whole lot more than electricity, becoming a cultural icon after acting as a backdrop for an array of films, music videos, album covers and more.
