Good to Know: Windsor Castle Logistics and Hours

Windsor Castle sits in the town of Windsor, west of central London, on a chalk ridge above the River Thames. It's a working royal home, so parts of it can close at short notice when the castle is in official use, and the State Apartments in particular aren't always open. Hours shift with the season and around royal engagements, and the castle often runs reduced hours or closes on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so it's worth checking current arrangements before you travel. Keep in mind that St. George's Chapel is usually closed to visitors on Sundays for services.

Inside, the main things to see are the lavishly decorated State Apartments, hung with paintings from the Royal Collection; St. George's Chapel, one of the finest pieces of English Gothic architecture and the burial place of several monarchs; and Queen Mary's Dolls' House, a miniature mansion fitted out in remarkable 1920s detail. The Drawings Gallery shows rotating works from the Royal Collection, and the grounds include formal gardens and open parkland. Security screening applies at the entrance, so pack light and expect bags to be checked.
