More information from organisers:

Royal Connections Crowns and Coronets includes personal effects from royal weddings, coronations, holidays, and even documents and images of young royals doing their work experience at Blenheim.

It will also feature an ornate cap worn by Queen Anne which has undergone conservation and will be on public display for the first time.

The Marlborough’s’ relationship with the monarchy dates back to before the creation of Blenheim Palace, when Queen Anne provided the funds for its construction as a reward from a ‘grateful nation’ for John Churchill, the First Duke of Marlborough’s, stunning victory at the Battle of Blenheim.

Home to the Dukes of Marlborough since 1705, Blenheim Palace was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. Steeped in history, the Palace is surrounded with over 2,000 acres of ‘Capability’ Brown parkland and beautiful Formal Gardens. Tours, exhibitions and events showcase the splendour of ‘Britain’s Greatest Palace’ and deliver an unforgettable day out for all ages.
