I have never been inside. But the structural architect from outside looks amazing and very unique.

The RCJ is potentially the best looking courthouse on the planet.
And that's probably because the RCJ has that Hogwarts look to it!

If you are like me in that you have never been on trial or be part of a jury and would like to have first-hand experience the real thing, this is the place to be. In fact, the general public can attend most hearing in open court.
From the historical standpoint, this majestic court was designed by George Edmund Street and build back in the 1870 decade. It was not until 4th December 1882 that it was inaugurated by Queen Victoria. It alone houses the High Court of the land bar Scotland, and the Court of Appeal of England and Wales.
Architecturally speaking, it is of Victorian-Gothic style, with greyish stone that gives it a stunning finishing: the result is a majestic building that contrasts with its surroundings and shines
Whilst unknown and not a touristic destination, it is beautiful to admire both the interiors and exteriors, including the finest details. It is through client visits in the Temple and Chancery Lane areas that I happen to discover this hidden beauty.

Very handsome Victorian building.
The architecture is absolutely perfect for an imposing law court building.
High security, but the public can attend the sessions, providing that there
is space.
An introduction to how the justice system works.

First ever visit interesting exhibitions, didn't know it was open to the public to view the court rooms for free. On a main road and easy to travel to was not that busy but the viewers for the exhibitions where still arriving when I leaving the building. Airport style security on the entrance to the building.

Dishonest paralegals, dishonest barristers and dishonest solicitors at 'regulators' need to use the law and refuse to accept instructions from dishonest clients. Until lawyers practise honesty, the legal profession will continue to risk ripping out the heart of the country.

Fascinating place. You can sit in and watch cases as long as there's space. There's no parking anywhere but (if you dare take it) there's plenty of public transport. Loads of restaurants, pub and really cool eateries close by and then there are all the theatres. Great place. ????????????????????

Staggeringly beautiful and imposing building with an almost tangible weighty presence. An essential part of legal London, it is situated on the junction of the Strand and Kingsway. Looks amazing at night.

If you are at all interested in Brisish Justice and amazing buildings then look up when the Royal Courts of Justice are having an open weekend and get along there. This Victorian, Gothic building was opened by Queen Victoria in 1872 and is one of the largest courts in Europe. You can go at any time it is open but you will be restricted by what is happening in the courts, hence the open weekend. Surprisingly there is a Citizens Advice Bureau in the main hall.

Great gothic architecture. This is a court building, but it could be something from a fairy tale as well.

Other place that I wasn't expecting to sightseeing, but took my breath out. It is a monster architecture, if you don't expect to see that, it will shock you probably. At night it is more beautiful. I had the luck to observe this while snowing, for me an incredible day.

The Royal Court of Justice (RCJ) is located on the Strand in Westminster at the border with the City of London and serves as the High Court and Court of Appeals for England and Wales. It is an imposing building of Victorian Gothic architectural style, built in the 1870s and is very interesting to view from the outside.

Coming from a foreign country while being involved in the case in this honourable court, I would like to say just one thing: if you search for justice and righteousness, British Court is the right place to find it!
Big thank you to the judges of this court.

Aftab Uddin at the appeals office is very unhelpful and rude. Raises his voice to customers. The queue is not respected and they shout ‘who is next’ as if you are deaf and expect a response/attendance at desk immediately.

No I was not here for any Sentencing of any kind...it was a wedding reception...and yes that is still a Sentencing of a kind but it was not my own! Very very impressive wedding venue the boasts high ceilings and a blank canvas that the bride and groom could certainly make their own. Very excellent service from the catering staff - only wish I could have eaten more or taken a doggy bag. It's nice to see venues having a multi purpose

Although the RCJ have disable parking and the court staff are very helpful indeed , however if you are in any to the left of the main entrance it's very long walk from your car to whichever court you are attending and some of the floors are Not lever.So even through there is two other parking areas these RCJ are difficult for didable people to get around .Therefore l would suggest the RCJ need to consider their needs and accompanied the disable alot better,as my experience was extremely painful

The building is a beautiful and massive extravagance of victorian architecture
It houses the civil court and also court of appeal
As said the building is beautiful and we'll worth a visit
The court on the other hand is underfunded with people who don't have a clue what they should be doing on the whole - a shambles
What a shame
