Bring a piece of London’s iconic skyline into your collection with this highly detailed sectional model of St Paul’s Cathedral Dome, originally designed by Sir Christopher Wren. For over three centuries, this architectural masterpiece has stood as a defining symbol of the city, rising proudly above the spires of Wren’s other London churches.
Inspired by Michelangelo’s dome at St Peter’s Basilica and Mansart’s Val-de-Grâce in Paris, Wren’s design remains uniquely British in character—a triumph of proportion, innovation, and engineering. The dome’s distinctive double masonry storeys rise nearly 95 feet above a solid base, while its hidden triple-dome structure demonstrates Wren’s extraordinary ingenuity in achieving both interior harmony and grand exterior scale. Recessed columns, rhythmic bays, and the concealed brick cone that supports the lantern are all faithfully represented in this model.
This 3D printable model is based on the renowned isometric drawing by R. B. Brook-Greaves and meticulously captures the layered complexity of Wren’s vision. It makes an ideal display piece for architects, design enthusiasts, collectors of London landmarks, or educators exploring classical architecture.
