Canada Gate, Grade I listed gate in Westminster, United Kingdom

The wrought iron Canada Gate features five portals with gilded metalwork and displays coats of arms from Canadian provinces on Portland stone pillars.

The Bromsgrove Guild of Applied Arts constructed this memorial entrance in 1905 as a tribute from Canada to honor the memory of Queen Victoria.

The gate forms part of an architectural ensemble connecting Trafalgar Square to Buckingham Palace through The Mall and the Victoria Memorial scheme.

Located at the junction with Constitution Hill, the gate provides ceremonial access to Green Park and closes during official state processions from Buckingham Palace.

Two massive stone pillars contain shields representing Alberta, Saskatchewan, and British Columbia, provinces that joined the Canadian Confederation after the gate's design.
