Quick Details
Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world, and Queen Elizabeth II loves to spend her weekends in this stunning fortress. Built in the 11th century by William the Conqueror, the castle is still a favorite residence of the royal family. The royal palace was once the residence of Hafiz Abdul Karim, along with his wives who used to walk arm in arm with Queen Victoria.
This sprawling grand home covers an area of 13 acres and overlooks charming Windsor town. Pay the castle a visit and find out why our royals have lived here for centuries!
The State Apartments
Take a look inside the heart of the working palace — the State Apartments. Regularly used for ceremonial and official occasions, the Apartments are furnished with some of the finest works of art from the Royal Collection.
Try and spot the paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens, and Leonardo da Vinci that hang from the walls! During the winter months, the richly decorated Semi-State Rooms are added to the visitor route.
Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House
Specially built for Queen Mary by leading British architect Sir Edwin Lutyens in the 1920s, Queen Mary’s Dolls’ House is a magical miniature residence with extraordinary attention to detail.
Complete with working lights, running water, and a tiny garden, this dollhouse is a perfect replica of an aristocratic home. The library is even filled with original works by famous writers of the day!
