It’s a great spot to see contemporary art
At the four corners of Trafalgar Square, you’ll find four tall stone plinths, three of which are now home to statues of British Army generals and kings. But there’s one plinth you’ll certainly want to stop and take a closer look at: the Fourth plinth, on the northwest side of the square. Since 2005, the plinth has showcased a variety of modern artworks, ranging from the thought-provoking and sombre to the avant-garde and absurd. At the moment, the plinth is playing host to a recreation of a lost Iraqi sculpture called the Lamassu, and symbolises the artwork and industries destroyed by war.
