Burlington House, London
Burlington House was built in 1664 as a private mansion for Sir John Denham. In 1668, he sold it to Richard Boyle, the first Earl of Burlington, who gave the building its present name. It was later passed to the Cavendish family. In 1854, the government purchased Burlington House and allocated it to the Royal Academy’s temporary art exhibitions as well as numerous learned societies such as the Geological Society of London, the Royal Astronomical Society, and the Royal Society of Chemistry.
