L’ann\u00e9e derni\u00e8re, lors du \u00ab\u00a0Open House London\u00a0\u00bb, j’ai eu l’occasion de visiter le Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Oui, je sais : plus d’un an pour \u00e9crire un article, \u00e7a fait long. Mais bon, \u00e9tant donn\u00e9 le contexte sanitaire actuel qui nous emp\u00eache de voyager, je prends toutes les excuses inimaginables pour me rendre \u00e0 nouveau dans la ville que j’aime le plus au monde (m\u00eame si ce n’est que par la pens\u00e9e) \ud83d\ude09 Revenons-en \u00e0 nos moutons cela dit !<\/p>\n

Ce magnifique monument donc, \u00e0 l\u2019architecture victorienne, se trouve sur King Charles Street et son r\u00f4le consiste \u00e0 d\u00e9fendre les int\u00e9r\u00eats britanniques \u00e0 l’\u00e9tranger. C’est l\u2019architecte George Gilbert Scott qui a \u00e9t\u00e9 charg\u00e9 de le d\u00e9corer pour impressionner les visiteurs \u00e9trangers. Un aper\u00e7u ? Voici le Grand Staircase. Il est surmont\u00e9 d’un d\u00f4me sur lequel sont peintes des figures f\u00e9minines repr\u00e9sentant les diff\u00e9rents pays avec lesquels le Royaume-Uni entretenait des relations diplomatiques en 1860. Cet escalier royal est \u00e9galement entour\u00e9 de peintures murales.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Place maintenant \u00e0 la Locarno Suite : cette derni\u00e8re est compos\u00e9e de trois pi\u00e8ces d\u00e9di\u00e9es aux d\u00eeners diplomatiques, aux conf\u00e9rences et aux r\u00e9ceptions. Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, elle abritait \u00e9galement le Communication Department, \u00e0 savoir le service qui s’occupait de d\u00e9chiffrer les messages.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\" \"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Vient ensuite l’India Office, qui est, selon moi, le plus r\u00e9ussi avec le Grand Staircase, puisqu’il abrite une cour grandiose, la Durbar Court, r\u00e9alis\u00e9e en 1866 par l\u2019architecte Matthew Digby Wyatt : cette derni\u00e8re, dont le sol est compos\u00e9 de marbre grec, italien et belge, s’\u00e9rige sur trois \u00e9tages de colonnes. Elle poss\u00e8de \u00e9galement un toit vitr\u00e9, qui la rend extr\u00eamement lumineuse, et rappelle le Crystal Palace et la Paddington station de Londres (du m\u00eame architecte of course<\/em>).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Aujourd’hui, ce b\u00e2timent \u00ab\u00a0royal\u00a0\u00bb comporte un centre d’apprentissage des langues (80 au total) donnant acc\u00e8s \u00e0 60 cha\u00eenes de t\u00e9l\u00e9vision \u00e9trang\u00e8res, \u00e0 plus de 2 000 journaux en ligne et \u00e0 une biblioth\u00e8que de 4 000 livres dans plus de 70 langues. De quoi faire r\u00eaver un linguiste, n’est-ce pas ? Malheureusement, tout cela n’est destin\u00e9 qu’aux employ\u00e9s du gouvernement.<\/p>\n

Le b\u00e2timent renferme \u00e9galement un centre de formation diplomatique et une cellule de crise d\u00e9di\u00e9e aux d\u00e9sastres naturels et \u00e0 la s\u00e9curit\u00e9 int\u00e9rieure. Voil\u00e0 un petit r\u00e9sum\u00e9 historique des missions r\u00e9alis\u00e9es au sein de ces murs au fil des d\u00e9cennies.<\/p>\n

Vous \u00eates d\u00e9\u00e7us par mes photos ? (vous avez le droit, ne vous inqui\u00e9tez pas : j’avoue que ce jour-l\u00e0, le b\u00e2timent \u00e9tait plein \u00e0 craquer et que je n’ai pas r\u00e9ussi \u00e0 obtenir de beaux clich\u00e9s).
