Windsor Castle

Windsor Castle is the oldest and largest inhabited castle in the world. It has been the family home of British kings and queens for almost 1,000 years. It is the official residence of The Queen most weekends. The Union flag is seen flying when she is in residence. The Castle is used regularly for ceremonial and State occasions and banquets for overseas monarchs and presidents. St George's Chapel is the spiritual home of the Order of the Garter, the oldest order of chivalry in the world. The Queen, The Prince of Wales and 24 Knight Companions still attend a Service of Thanksgiving there.
