The London Stock Exchange is one of the world’s oldest stock exchanges, its history started in the coffee houses of 17th century London and the first old building, the Royal Exchange, was set up in 1565 by Thomas Gresham, a rich merchant. There, for more than 200 years, stock brokers and jobbers have bought and sold shares, making the financial institution an important piece of history. In 1667, the Great Fire destroyed the building, that was rebuilt by the architect, Edward Jerman, City Surveyor, who looked after the building resembled the old as much as possible. Since 1844 a new building has been opened to host the national Stock Exchange, but the old one has kept on to be a historical monument to the financial importance of the City. In 1991, the building was refurbished a first time, then, in 2001 it was once again remodeled to become the Grand Café of now.
