    From its origins as a residence for Henry VIII to its status today as the official seat of the British monarchy, St James’s Palace is steeped in 500 years of fascinating royal history.

    Your guide will lead you through the State Apartments as you discover the history of the Palace and hear the stories of its royal residents and the significant events that have taken place within its walls.  

    Highlights of the tour will include views of the surviving Tudor architecture, such as the Chapel Royal, Colour Court and the gatehouse; paintings, furniture and decorative arts from the Royal Collection; and the Throne Room and Picture Gallery where the Accession Council of King Charles III was held on 10 September 2022.
