Victoria and Albert Museum - Victoria and Albert Museum
Located in South Kensington, London, this is the world's largest art museum. It originated from the Industrial Museum, which was founded in Marlborough House in 1852 in response to the Great Exhibition held in London in 1851, in order to promote industrial arts, crafts, and craft education in Britain. With the expansion of the colony during the Victorian era, many art and craft items and rare objects were collected from both inside and outside of Britain, and in 1957 they were moved to the South Kensington Museum, which was built at its current location as a museum complex. The collection continued to grow, and in 1999, at the cornerstone-laying ceremony for the extension, Queen Victoria gave the museum its current name, which includes the name of her husband, Prince Albert.
