Balmoral Castle, bought in 1845 by Queen Victoria’s husband, Prince Albert, has been a summer retreat for the Royal Family ever since.
It was particularly special to Queen Elizabeth, the setting for Prince Philip’s 1946 proposal, their honeymoon, and summers with their children and grandchildren.
The castle is also a place of reflection. It was here that Queen Elizabeth died on September 8, 2022, aged 96, just days after performing her final duty.
Last year, King Charles marked the first anniversary of her death and his accession to the throne with a service at Crathie Kirk.
