Reviews of Statue of General James Wolfe

R. J.

Amazing views of Greenwich from this point. Don't know much about his history, but the place is always full of tourists pushing around to take selfies or photos of Canary Wharf / Greenwich / The Queen's House. *TIP: Toilets are just around the corner passed the Observatory via The Avenue -- 20pp, contactless only

K. M.

The view is just stunning and worth stopping by and enjoying it, especially during such a beautiful weather like today

S. A. A.

The view from the area/hill this staute sits upon is wonderful!

B. F.

I advice every one to visit this place, you can put one feet on the East and the other on the West of the prime meridian. A meridian is the half of an imaginary great circle on the Earth's surface, terminated by the North Pole and the South Pole, connecting points of equal longitude, as measured in angular degrees east or west of the Prime Meridian.

I. J.

Amazing view point of Greenwich below and London beyond. The whole park area is lovely and great to walk around at a leisurely pace taking it all in.

J. M.

One of the best views in London. Nice but hard walk up hill for those who might be less than top fitness but worth the effort to see the telescope and the view. We didn’t want to pay to go in to the Meridian.

G. D.

Wonderful unique view on the park and Canary Wharf

M. F.

This big and spectacular statue was built in 1930 to commemorate General James Wolfe (1727-1759), this Grade II listed structure was designed by Dr. Tait Mackenzie and a gift from the Canadians.

E. A.

One of the best views in London! Totally worth a stop.

J. P.

Great spot to take pictures from the London skyline

M. T.

Amazing views of the city skyline to see here!

K. Ż.

The best view of London, period.

a. a.

Picturesque. Lots to expect and experience. Come in summer and stay in black heath

K. K.

Nice monument just next to the Royal Observatory with a beautiful view on London.

N. R.

My favourite view over London, and one of the better (and lesser known) hill top views. A pleasant (steep) walk from Greenwich town centre. Worth visiting after snow fall when locals head out with sleighs and build snowmen.

J. C.

As others have said, visit this statue for the fantastic view of London behind it! The view is second to none, especially of Canary Wharf. There is a fairly steep walk from the Maritime Museum up to the observatory and for this view but it is well worth it!

R. S.

Outstanding place and a must visit for every tourist coming to LONDON!

B. R.

Still one of the best view to catch in London

D. H.

The statue's, well, a statue, but the view is superb! If you go early in the morning or later in the evening you can avoid the crowds for a peaceful view overlooking London.

M. T.

Incomparable views down to Queen's House, Maritime Museum, Old Naval College,and Canary Wharf. One of the best views in one of the best places in London!

B. K.

Amazing view of canary wharf

A. S.

Lots of parking free after 6 pm

M. J. B.

Second best view in Greenwich. The obnoxious tourists ruin it. Get there at sunrise for it all to yourself or go to the one only locals know about.

C. C.

The statue isn't worth looking at. Face the other side: the view on Greenwich, the Isle of Dogs and Canary wharf is amazing!

R. B.

A great view over London

M. H.

Best view in London

K. T.

The walk to the top is quite steep, but once your reach the top you're rewarded with an amazing view of London!

R. B.

The view is amazing, it can get a bit crowded. Prepare yourself to ''climb'' some stairs(not so many).

F. V.

Nice view of London from this spot just outside the Greenwich observatory. You can see the meridian laser at night

T. K.

The hill offers great view to the River Thames and Canary Wharf.

D. T.

Simply the best view onto London's skyline!

S. M.

Remarkable place to see London’s skyline through the Queen’s House and the Thames.

L. T.

Great view

Although ita crowded in summer and weekends, but the view is absolutely mindblowing.

All about the view.

L. F.

Good place.

S. N.

Wolfe of Quebec is commemorated by this statue. It still bears the scars of German bombs from WW2 and is, in my opinion, the finest viewpoint in London. To the West, you can see the City of London and St Pauls Cathedral is framed by the Towers of Tower Bridge. The skyline is much changed since my childhood, but it was here from my Fathers shoulders that I saw the dock cranes dip during the funeral of Sir Winston Churchill.

(Translated) Amazing view of the Thames and the city (Original) תצפית מדהימה על התמזה ועל העיר

(Translated) Very nice statue. (Original) Sehr schöne Statue.

e. a.

(Translated) The place where the meridian of Greenwich passes near the city of London. (Original) El lugar por donde pasa el meridiano de Greenwich cercano a la ciudad de Londres.

I. S.

(Translated) A small statue, usually there are a large number of people near it, since everyone takes photos with a view of London, and the view from here opens up simply incredible! A very beautiful place! (Original) Небольшая статуя, возле нее обычно большое количество людей, так как все делают фотографии с видом на Лондон, а вид от сюда открывается просто невероятный! Очень красивое место!

(Translated) The British Army officer was widely known to later generations for defeating the French army and winning the Battle of the Plains of Abraham. In 1756, when the Seven Years' War broke out, he was the deputy commander and participated in the Siege of Louisbourg (Siege of Louisbourg). After the capture of Louisbourg, Wolfe's forces captured Quebec after a long siege. But Wolff himself was killed by 3 musket pellets in the heat of the battle. This campaign won him a huge reputation and also made him a symbol of Britain's victory in the Seven Years' War and the expansion of its territory. The British-American painter Benjamin Wester's widely circulated painting The Death of General Wolfe (The Death of General Wolfe) is based on him. Because Wolff captured Quebec and enabled others to capture Montreal, he eventually ended French rule. He was called the "Conqueror of Quebec" and "Conqueror of Canada." (Original) 英國陸軍軍官，因為擊敗法國軍隊、贏得亞伯拉罕平原戰役而廣為後世所知。 1756年，七年戰爭爆發，他為副指揮，參與路易斯堡圍城戰（Siege of Louisbourg）。攻陷路易斯堡後，沃爾夫的部隊經過一段漫長的圍城戰後，攻陷魁北克。但是沃爾夫本人卻在戰鬥最激烈的時候，身中3顆火槍彈丸身亡。此役為他贏得了巨大的聲譽，也使到他成為了英國在七年戰爭中勝出、領土擴大的標誌。英裔美國畫家班傑明‧委斯特廣為流傳的畫作沃爾夫將軍之死（The Death of General Wolfe）就是以他為題材。沃爾夫因為攻佔魁北克，使到他人能夠順勢攻佔蒙特婁，最終結束法國統治，被稱為「魁北克征服者」與「加拿大征服者」。
