The Oxo Tower, located on Queen's Walk along the Thames, is an outstanding example of London's industrial past and architectural innovation. Originally built in the 1920s, the building served as a production facility for Oxo stock cubes.
The iconic tower is particularly notable for its illuminated "OXO" windows, which cleverly display the brand logo despite advertising restrictions at the time. Today, the Oxo Tower houses a mix of design studios, boutiques and restaurants. The roof terrace, which is open to the public, offers stunning views of the Thames and the London skyline.
An interesting fact: During the construction of the tower, the advertising ban was circumvented by designing the windows in the shape of the letters "O", "X" and "O" - a creative solution that made the building a unique landmark.
Tip for your visit: Plan a detour to the Oxo Tower during a stroll along Queen's Walk. The tower is an impressive photo opportunity, especially in the evenings when the “OXO” lights shine. A visit to the roof terrace or the restaurant on the eighth floor is worthwhile to enjoy the panoramic view of London.
