Royal Institution of Great Britain
An institution dedicated to scientific education and research; in the English-speaking world it is often referred to simply as the Royal Institution.
The Royal Institution of Great Britain was tasked with the rapid diffusion of useful inventions and improvements and with the educational dissemination to a broad public of technical knowledge and the application of new and improved methods, equipment and machinery in agriculture, handicrafts and industry. It received a Royal Charter in 1800.
The Royal Institution opened a museum in 1973 that is dedicated to Michael Faraday. It is located in the main building in Albemarle Street, where the Institution has had its home since it was founded in April 1799. Research on the premises of the Royal Institution ceased in 2007. It is regarded today as a modern organisation that promotes the dissemination of science in everyday life.
