The London Needle is placed in the City of Westminster. It was a present for the United Kingdom, commemorating the Lord Nelson and Sir Ralph Abercromby victories.

Firstly, it was built in the Embankment, on the Thamesshore.

Cleopatra’s Needle is surrounded by two Egyptian sphinxes, made from bronze, where there are written Egyptian inscriptions that say: “The good god, Thuthmosis III given life”

During World War I, a German bomb landed near Cleopatra’s Needle. Commemorating it, they didn’t repair the damages of the bomb, so that damages are clearly visible nowadays. The restauration work started in 2005.
