More information about Kensington Palace
Kensington Palace is a classic London icon. Home to the British royal family since the 17th century, Kensington Palace gives visitors and royal lovers a rare chance each summer to explore the lush Kensington Gardens and the rich palace itself. Spend a few hours meandering the homestead’s hallowed halls.
At William III and Mary II’s behest, Sir Christopher Wren, Surveyor of the King's Works, constructed this palace, which has since seen renovations while remaining a breathing, royal fixture. The palace holds centuries of secrets as the private home for some of the world’s most public figures. Also home to Diana, Princess of Wales, and saved from demolition by Queen Victoria, Kensington Palace is a singular London spectacle that takes visitors back in time while also acting as the steadfast symbol of the royals’ domestic lives.
What to Watch For
- Pose like the elite! Climb to the top of the King’s Staircase and look down from where Georgian courtiers would peer at the commoners.
- Whether you explore the small spaces where the great tale of the Stuart dynasty met its tragic conclusion or the impressively decorated State Apartments, Kensington Palace offers the unique opportunity to marvel at the small rooms of some of the world’s greats.
- Discover the fashionable world of the curious court that was designed for George II and Queen Caroline. As you go, look out for other idiosyncratic details and architectural flourishes that make this palace more intriguing than meets the eye.
