Whitehall Palace
A history of Whitehall Palace, the official seat of the English monarchy for almost 160 years. Once Europe's largest royal residence, all that remains of Whitehall Palace today is Inigo Jones' magnificent Banqueting House, the majority of the complex having succumbed to a devastating fire in 1698. Beginning in the Middle Ages with its origins as the home of the Archbishop of York and covering every stage of its gradual transformation into a palace fit for a royal household, this is the story of a remarkable building.
