Paddington Bear Statue
Paddington has moved!
Paddington has moved from his location on Platform 1, to the station entrance near Praed Street, making space for increased passenger numbers from the new Elizabeth line station. You can find Paddington near Platforms 9 and 10, at the bottom of the Arrivals Road, between WHSmith and The Pasty Shop.

The area behind Paddington will be decorated soon, for those all important Paddington selfies!

Paddington Station is a very important place for Paddington Bear. It is where he was first found by Mr. and Mrs. Brown when he arrived in London from Peru and of course it is also the reason he got his delightful name.

To commemorate this there is a life-sized bronze statue of Paddington in the station. Designed by the sculptor Marcus Cornish, the statue was unveiled by the Paddington Bear series author Michael Bond on 24 February 2000.
