Windsor Castle is almost as famous as its inhabitants, including the late Queen Elizabeth II. This stunning estate is the world's longest-occupied palace in the world, housing 40 British monarchs over nearly 1,000 years, while also serving as a prison during the Civil War in the mid-17th century, a social center for political figures and nobility, and a fortress during several major wars. William the Conqueror first commissioned Windsor Castle in 1070 in a lush spot above the River Thames and on the outskirts of Saxon hunting land. It was completed in 16 years, as part of a defensive ring of castles built to guard London in the popular motte-and-bailey castle design of the day. Windsor quickly became a favorite residence for the royal family and grew to become the imposing majestic castle it is today along with the picturess town of Windsor surrounding it.
Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest occupied castle in the world. It is open to visitors throughout the year. Founded by William the Conqueror in the 11th century, it has since been the home of 40 monarchs.
Eton College, near Windsor is one of England's largest independent secondary schools and one of the highest in prestige. It was founded by Henry VI in 1440–41 for 70 highly qualified boys who received scholarships from a fund endowed by the king.
