The palace was built by Inigo Jones in 1616, and was one of the first classical style buildings in England, known as the Palladian style. It was Anne of Denmark, wife of James I, who commissioned the architect to build the building. However, it was not completed until 1635, and Queen Henrietta Maria, wife of Charles I, was the first to occupy it. Despite some modifications, the Palladian style is still visible. Inside, a collection of works of art on the theme of the navy and the sea. Don't miss the magnificent spiral staircase.

La queen's house est un musée gratuit qui offre une collection d'oeuvres d'art en lien avec la mer. Le bâtiment est intéressant en lui-même, avec une partie réservée au roi à l'époque et une autre dédiée à la reine. L'escalier en spirale est très joli tout comme la salle principale avec sa balustrade.
