About

Sir Winston Churchill took his first breath here at Blenheim Palace in 1874, which is reason enough to add it to your ‘sites from English history’ checklist.

Visit Blenheim Palace and wander the gilded state rooms and view the portraits, furniture, sculpture, and tapestries. You can even picnic in the gardens.

Included with your palace, park, and gardens ticket is access to a range of events, seasonal trails, and family activities throughout the year.

Highlights include the Jousting tournament, food festival, flower show, half-term activities, exhibitions, and access to over 300 years of history inside the palace, parkland, and formal gardens.

Visit the Life Through a Royal Lens exhibition to explore more than 100 photographs of the British Royal Family, from public events to behind-the-scenes moments. The exhibition runs from 12 July to 27 September.
