Trafalgar Square is one of London’s most vibrant and busiest spaces in the middle of the city. Surrounded by museums, galleries, cultural spaces, and historic buildings and thus a main tourist attraction. Back in 1830, this site was officially named Trafalgar Square. In 1843, Nelson’s Column was erected. William Railton designed the column and statue to honour Admiral Nelson, after his victory in the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. Two years later, the fountains were built.
