Itinerary
A Royal home and fortress for over 900 years, Windsor Castle, the largest occupied castle in the world, remains a working palace today. The Queen uses the Castle both as a private home, where she usually spends the weekend, and as an official Royal residence at which she undertakes certain formal duties. The castle has grown from a fortification in the 11th century into a palace complex and UNESCO World Heritage Site over the following centuries. The castle is now one of the largest tourist attractions in England, welcoming over three million people every year, making it one of the most visited tourist attractions in Europe. The castle stands on the site of a Roman fort, which was destroyed by King Henry I. The castle is enclosed by walls up to high and wide, with turrets at intervals along them, and is irregular in shape because it consists of different periods of building with parts dating back to Norman times and others more recent.
