St George's Chapel
Beautiful church where many of the British monarchs are buried, including the late Queen Elizabeth, her husband Prince Philip and Elizabeth’s parents. No photographs allowed, but the audio guide was really useful and the staffs are happy to share more information with you if you ask them.

Booked a ticket online for a Friday, first slot available was 12 midday. We arrived at 12.15pm after finding a parking space in the town.There is no visitor parking at the castle so allow time for finding a parking space. We joined the queue to get through security which moved fast and was really well managed it took about 10 minutes which was impressive, given the number of people ahead of us.Once through security we walked up to the main gate , just inside there was another queue for Audio guides , as we were pushed for time we decided to give the audio guide a miss and explore ourselves.St George's Chapel is a very impressive building containing so much history including the flag stone marking the burial place of Elizabeth II.After spending time in the Chapel we visited the state apartments which were worth the entry fee alone. Please note that there was a really long queue for Queen Mary's Doll house so we decided not to visit.There is no photography allowed inside any of the buildings and the staff working there are very active in terms of stopping any attempts at photography.Would day that Windsor Castle as a whole is worth a visit, if you had time you could spend 3+ hours exploring we arrived at 12.15 and were walking out the exit at 2.30.I was comparing it to Napoleon's Apartments @ The Louvre ,but not as impressive as the Palace at Versaille. However the fact that it still functions as a Royal Castle makes it more current.

This is a not to be missed, a must visit Gothic style and architecture royal chapel within Windsor Castle. It is the site of many past royal services ,weddings and also many royal burials have taken place here, which include the recent Queen Elizabeth II, in 2022. While inside the chapel, you have to maintain silence and remain in a queue. Photography is strictly not allowed. After the tour of the chapel, you can visit the Royal Collection Shop, where you can buy some souvenirs here. I was so awed and mesmerized by the intricate interior designs!

Graat experience and day out. A literal walk into history that takes you back a thousand years. Its fully immersive and audio tours are available in lots of languages.Highlights:The Queens Doll HouseThe ApartmentsSt. George's ChapelLots of gift shopsLowlights:Cost of entry is high.No photography or video is allowed anywhere inside the buildings (exterior shots are ok though).Apparently, Her Majesty didn't allow it when she was reigning. It sort of detracts from a memorable experience - especially for those who have visited from abroad.Other than that, its worth a visit.

This place is super amazing! This is where Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip are buried. You can see their tombs up close. No pictures unfortunately. Make sure ton stay for Evensong at 5:30 pm. Ask a staff member for details.

The entire castle area was nice to go. We went on Sunday so apparently less people. Got to participate the service at the chapel at 5 because that was the only way to visit the chapel on that day. The service was 45 minutes and once you are in you need to stay the whole thing. Lots of singing and things, great experience.

A spectacular place to visit. No cameras are allowed inside but it's what you think it would be... gorgeous. The resting place to so many Royals. Windsor Castle and St. George's Chapel is a must see. Staff is friendly, dress is casual and prices are fair.

A beautiful chapel in the grounds of Windsor Castle. The architecture is stunning and the history is incredible. No photos inside unfortunately but worth the visit. It's the final resting place of a few Kings and Queens of England including of course Queen Elizabeth II and Phillip, Duke of Edinburgh. A must see if you are in Windsor and wondering whether to visit the castle or not.

Absolutely stunning church building. This place is full of historical significance and spiritual meaning. The final resting place of generations of kings and queens, including her majesty Queen Elizabeth the Second. The electionic guide is very helpful with lots of historical facts but also opportunities for prayer and reflection.

A beautiful church in the heart of the Windsor Castle complexThis is inside the Windsor Castle complex and is one of the many sights that you can see while you are there. Entry is via a purchased ticket into the complex. The ticket is good for a year so if you plan on returning at any time in the next 365 days get the stamp it only took a couple of minutes. The chapel is “down the hill” in the Lower Ward area. It is hard to miss as it is an impressive, imposing structure. No pictures are allowed inside parts of the chapel but that leaves the visitor plenty of area to take pictures outside the buildings on the grounds. Entry is through a clearly marked area off the walkway. You are guided through a specific path to see all the different parts of the church. It is breathtaking with its impressive architecture and gorgeous large stained glass areas. There is an audio tour that is included that I highly recommend and will give you a lot of information necessary to understand the history and context of what you are seeing throughout the various parts. This is a working church so access may be limited but they invite the public to participate if you are present. There is a lot to see throughout the building due to its long history and association with the monarchy. This is a must-see for anyone visiting the area!
