Where can you see statues and monuments to Queen Elizabeth, Diana, William, Harry, and the royal family?

You can see a statue of Queen Elizabeth II in the city of York, in York minster. 


The proposed sites for the latest statue of Queen Elizabeth included Trafalgar Square, which was vetoed, and  St James's Park near Buckingham Palace in London.



London has statues of Henry VIII and Charles I and Charles II. You will find more statues and plaques of famous people in St Paul's cathedral and Westminster Abbey. Also fountains and gates.

The statue of Princess Diana and her sons, William and Harry, is in Kensington Palace in the Sunken Garden. (Not to be confused with Kensington Gardens.)

London also has a famous fountain for Diana. 

And fancy gates which were installed commemorating the Queen Mother, Queen Elizabeth's mother. 

Statues of Queen Victoria are all over the world.
