Welcome to Battersea

Home to London's most iconic landmark and its most beautiful riverside park.

A Modern Icon

Battersea has transformed from an industrial district into one of London’s most exciting destinations. The redevelopment of Battersea Power Station has created a world-class hub for shopping, dining, and leisure, while retaining the area's Victorian charm.

Must-See: Lift 109

Experience a unique glass elevator ride 109 metres up inside one of the Power Station's iconic chimneys for 360-degree views of the London skyline.

Battersea Park

A 200-acre Victorian masterpiece. Unlike many London parks, it sits right on the river.

  • The Peace Pagoda: A stunning Buddhist monument overlooking the Thames.
  • Children's Zoo: Home to lemurs, meerkats, and otters.
  • Pump House Gallery: A contemporary art gallery housed in a Grade II listed Victorian tower.

Culture & Lifestyle

Battersea Arts Centre

Located in the old Town Hall, this is a world-renowned venue for invented theatre, comedy, and community workshops. It rebuilt itself after a fire and is now more vibrant than ever.

Northcote Road

Known as "Nappy Valley" for its family appeal, this street is packed with independent boutiques, antique shops, florists, and a famous weekend street market.

Battersea Dogs & Cats Home

One of the world's oldest and most famous animal rescue centres. While it's a working charity, they offer visitor exhibits to learn about their history and rehoming work.

Living & Getting Around

Transport Revolution
