The 'Jubilee Gardens' is a
public park in
South Bank,
London which was created in
1977 to mark the
Silver Jubilee of Elizabeth II. The park is the site of a memorial to the casualties of the
International Brigades of the
Spanish Civil War, especially the
British Battalion which took very heavy casualties. Its neighbours are the
London Eye,
The Shell Centre,
County Hall and the
River Thames.
The site of the Jubilee Gardens was formerly used for the
Dome of Discovery and the adjacent
Skylon Tower during the
Festival of Britain in
1951.
