Henry's wives

Walk in the footsteps of Henry VIII's six wives in Henry VIII's Apartments at Hampton Court Palace

Please note: from 3 January until 9 February 2012 this display will be CLOSED due to essential maintenance in the Great Hall which means the Buttery has to be shut.

Two of the visual clues left behind by Henry's queens will also be unavailable - will you be able to guess which queens are missing and what their fate was?

Anne Boleyn

See our exciting new film featuring all six of Henry VIII's wives. The film will be shown in the Buttery, just before the Great Hall in Henry VIII's Apartments, where you can also see new portraits of each wife and learn more about their lives...and fates. 

As you walk in their footsteps through Henry's apartments, discover the visual clues left behind by his queens in these magnificent rooms and find out about the events in the palace that shaped their lives.
