    Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom 9 March, 2022

    This is Buckingham Palace, the place that will cease to be the official residence of Queen Elizabeth II

    Queen Elizabeth II surprised with the news of her definitive move to Windsor Castle, leaving behind decades of her reign at Buckingham Palace. This fortress located in London, has been the symbol of the monarchy since 1837 when the first monarch lived in its facilities.

    Although Queen Elizabeth, 95, has spent most of her reign in Buckingham, she has a special connection with Windsor Castle, as she spent her last moments with her beloved husband Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, who is buried there, as are the Queen’s parents.
