The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of September 2,1666. In four days it destroyed
more than three quarters of the old city, where most of those houses were built out of wood and close
together. One hundred thousand people became homeless but only few lost their lives. The fire started on
Sunday morning. By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the
city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known
