WINDSOR
CASTLE
Windsor Castle is the largest inhabited castle in the world,
and the oldest in continuous occupation, some 900 years ago
Windsor Castle, originally made of wood, was built for William
the Conqueror to guard the approach to London. The site is above
the River
Thames, on the edge of a Saxon hunting ground and one day's march
from the Tower of London. Since this time it has been a Royal Palace.
Today, Windsor Castle remains a working palace and the Queen's official
residence. The State Apartments contain some of the finest works of
art, armour, paintings in the world. There are masterpieces by Rembrandt,
Rubens, Holbein and Van Dyck as well as magnificent French and English
furniture and porcelain. When the Queen is in residence and on special
days the flag flies above the Castle. Those areas which were damaged
by fire in November 1992 have been beautifully restored by some of
the finest british craftsmen.
Visitors should note that opening times are subject to alteration
