Since the 19th century, the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace has been home to the royal collection of coaches and carriages.

It has played an important role in many memorable State and ceremonial occasions, such as Her Majesty’s Coronation, royal weddings and Trooping the Colour.

The Mews is also home to Windsor Greys and Cleveland Bays, the horses that pull the royal carriages, each named personally by Her Majesty.

The State Rooms at the heart of Buckingham Palace provide the setting for ceremonial occasions and official entertaining, where The King welcomes guests from all walks of life.

The rooms are furnished with many of the greatest treasures from the Royal Collection, including paintings by Vermeer and Canaletto, sculpture by Canova, exquisite Sèvres porcelain and some of the finest English and French furniture in the world.
