| − | Like the rest of the Houses of Parliament, the Victoria Tower was built between 1840 and 1860, to replace the original Houses of Parliament that had been destroyed by a fire in 1834. It forms the entrance to the House of Lords, and the Queen traditionally uses this entrance when attending Parliament. A flag flies from the top of the tower when Parliament is in session.
