The King's Gallery is located adjacent to Buckingham Palace, on the site of what was once a private chapel for Queen Victoria.

The chapel was destroyed in an air raid in 1940, and at the suggestion of Queen Elizabeth II and The Duke of Edinburgh it was developed as an art gallery for the Royal Collection in 1962.

In 1997, a project began to expand and modernise the gallery, the most significant addition to Buckingham Palace in 150 years.

The King's Gallery was opened by Queen Elizabeth II in May 2002 as part of the Golden Jubilee celebrations, and today it hosts a programme of changing exhibitions from the Royal Collection.

The Da Vinci exhibition is absolutely fabulous... you can actually observe his scripts so close and there aren’t any barriers to keep audience from the works...my eyes were filled with tears.

Il posto è magnifico, vale la pena di organizzarci una visita, i giardini poi sono incantevoli ma tutta la tenuta in generale è molto curata e suggestiva
