Blenheim Palace










Today we went to the beautiful Blenheim Palace...and it was just that- beautiful & huge! Blenheim Palace is the current home of the 11th Duke of Marlborough. It was also the birthplace of Sir Winston Churhill, who was the 6th Duke of Marlborough's grandchild. Bleinheim was built to celebrate the victory over the French during the Spanish Succession. It was a gift to the 1st Duke of Marlborough who lead them to victory. Well some gift it has turned out to be! As far as architecture & interior design goes, this place was probably one of my most favorite places so far. I could definately live here! haha I've posted some exterior pictures, & garden pictures of course-which were also amazing!...
