The History Of Highclere Castle
Highclere Castle has a rich tapestry of history dating back to its beginnings as a medieval palace. It underwent an extensive remodel in the 1840s by the renowned architect Sir Charles Barry, who also left his mark on the Houses of Parliament in London. The remodel ushered in the present-day castle’s awe-inspiring Jacobethan style, a seamless fusion of classical symmetry and Gothic grandeur, rendering it one of England’s most stunning stately homes.
