St George’s Chapel Windsor 360
We were honoured to be asked to create the St George’s Chapel Windsor 360 virtual tour. St George’s is the place of worship for the royal residence of Windsor Castle. The castle chapel boasts over 6 centuries of history, and has seen a host of Royal weddings over the centuries.
Royal Weddings
The royal wedding of 2018 saw Prince Harry (Prince Henry of Wales) and the American actress Meghan Markle married at St George’s Chapel, Windsor Castle. Later that year, Princess Eugenie wed her fiancé Jack Brooksbank here. 600 guests attended, along with 2,640 charity workers, community champions and local school children watching from inside the castle walls. Thousands more people flocked to Windsor hoping for a glimpse of the Royal couple and their guests.
Dating from 1348, the chapel is steeped in history, and is the burial place of Henry VIII as well as the executed Charlies I. In the virtual tour of ‘The Quire’, look down and you’ll see where Henry VIII is interred. Henry the Eighth was interred alongside the remains of Jane Seymour, his favourite Queen, who died from complications shortly after giving birth to his son. Charles I is also buried here.
You can see where the Knights of the Garter (including Margaret Thatcher, and Prince William, and who have included Edmund Hillary and Winston Churchill in the past) sit in chapel, and view their ‘stall plates’ showing their coats of arms and titles.
