Who lives at Windsor Castle, who owns it and is it open to the public?

Horse chestnut and London plane trees lining the Long Walk in front of Windsor Castle display autumn colours on 23 October 2022.

Windsor Castle was one of the late Queen Elizabeth’s favourite homes and the Royal Family have never shied away from giving us some amazing glimpses inside.

Nestled in the beautiful Berkshire countryside, Windsor Castle is a historic royal residence that has become even more iconic over the years. It was here that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex tied the knot in 2018, where Queen Elizabeth spent so much of the final years of her reign and where she was laid to rest in 2022. Nearby are so many other royal homes, from the Prince and Princess of Wales’s Adelaide Cottage, to the Royal Lodge and Bagshot Park where Duchess Sophie and Prince Edward live. However, Windsor Castle is a working palace rather than a private royal residence like them and some people might be intrigued about who lives at Windsor Castle now and what it looks like inside this special residence.
