The Mausoleum is one of Blickling’s most iconic landmarks. Standing at 45 feet (14 m) tall, the striking pyramid structure was built in 1793 to commemorate the death of John Hobart, the 2nd Earl of Buckinghamshire. The pyramid is made of 190,000 Portland stone blocks, which were all created on the estate. The Mausoleum is in the care of the National Trust.
