→Royal pavilion: spelling
== Royal pavilion ==
== Royal pavilion ==
In 1787 the most famous building in Brighton, the Pavillion, was built for the first time, although it was originally built in classical style (i.e. it imitated ancient Greek and Roman buildings). The original building looked quite unlike the present oriental one. The pavillion was rebuilt in 1815. This time it was made to imitate an Indian palace. Brighton town council bought the pavillion in 1850. Brighton's Royal Pavilion is a former royal residence, used by three monarchs in the town.
