Kensington Palace, State Apartments & Royal Ceremonial Dress Collection

Kensington Palace: The feminine influence of generations of royal women has shaped this stylish palace and elegant gardena. The birthplace and childhood home of Queen Victoria, the palace first became a royal residence for William and Mary in 1689. Mary felt ´shut in´ at Whitehall and much preferred her new Kensington home, which was enlarged by Sir Christopher Wren. The famous Orangery, was built in 1704 by Queen Anne, and George II´s wife, Queen Caroline, another gardener, added further improvements. Today, the palace house a stunning permanent display of fashionable and formal dresses, the Royal Ceremonial Dress Collection, which includes Queen Victoria´s wedding dress and dresses worn by Diana, Princess of Wales.
