Why was the crystal palace called the crystal palace?
The original Crystal Palace was a very large building covered in glass, built for the Great Exhibition of 1951. It was destroyed by fire in 1936.
In 1851 a great exhibition was held in the crystal palace?
The Great Exhibition was held in Hyde Park in 1851. A steel and glass building was built in the park, specifically to hold the exhibits. This glass building became known as the Crystal Palace. When the exhibition was over, the 'Crystal Palace' was dismantled and re-assembled in Upper Norwood, a suburb of South London and the highest point in London, where it remained until it mysteriously burnt down in 1936. It is rumoured that it was burnt down deliberately by government agents because it would have been an easy navigation point for incoming German bombers in the expected coming war. The stone foundations of the 'Crystal Palace' still exist and there is a station and football team named after it.
Why did duke buckingham build the buckingham palace?
Buckingham Palace was finished just prior to Queen Victoria's rein. Due to this fact, it was built mostly by hand using methods of the time. There would have been approximately 300 men working on it in total. A handful would be skilled labourer's, such as masons, clockwork masons, rederers, stone workers, and stained glass makers. These along with pre-Victorian architechs and regular labourer's the job took 7 years to build. :D Hope this helps. For futher information on the Palace try its website. Just type Buckingham Palace into google.
