Historic Royal Palaces is an independent charity
Support our six wonderful palaces
Historic Royal Palaces is an independent charity, who love and look after six of the most wonderful palaces in the world; Tower of London, Hampton Court Palace, Banqueting House, Kensington Palace, Kew Palace, and Hillsborough Castle and Gardens.
We raise funds so that our palaces can be open and accessible to everyone. That means conserving these iconic buildings and collections, conducting research into their rich history, and telling the stories of the palaces and the people who occupied them in new and inspiring ways.
Unlike many national museums and heritage sites across the UK, we receive no ongoing government support. We rely on the support of donors, partners, patrons, members and visitors to help us create accessible and engaging experiences across our palaces.
There are many ways you can support us and help give our palaces a future, for everyone.

School Superbloom Project 2022
To celebrate Her Majesty The Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022, we transformed the Tower of London's moat into 'Superbloom' - a spectacular field of flowers - to enhance people's wellbeing and create a beautiful garden in the heart of London. This film captures the experience of some of the participants and the impact of the project on their schools
To celebrate Her Majesty The Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022, we transformed the Tower of London's moat into 'Superbloom' - a spectacular field of flowers in the heart of London. We wanted to make the Tower’s Superbloom a truly national experience, so we invited schools around the UK to take part in the School Superbloom project. Watch this film where we capture the experience of some of the participants and the impact of the project on their schools.
