Queen's Gallery Statue
The Queen's Gallery is an art gallery in Edinburgh,
Scotland. It forms part of the Palace of Holyroodhouse
complex. It was opened in 2002 by Queen Elizabeth II, and
exhibits works from the Royal Collection. It is open to the
public daily.
This Victorian building was originally built as Holyrood
Free Church (a congregation of the Free Church of Scotland,
then from 1900 United Free Church of Scotland), but was last
used for worship in 1915. Prior to its conversion to become
the Queen's Gallery the building was used as a storeroom.
