A Mind-Blowing Tour of Queen Elizabeth II's Many Castles

The queen's main country house in England is Sandringham House, located in the Norfolk region north of London. The estate is a longtime family favorite; the queen's great-grandfather King Edward VII purchased the home in 1862, and her grandparents George V and Queen Mary spent a great deal of time there as well.

Now, Sandringham House is where the royal family marks every Christmas and many important events.

The estate, which is run as a commercial estate, comprises a number of homes, including Anmer Hall, where Prince William and his family spend the bulk of their time.
