Richmond Palace, Tudor palace ruins in Richmond upon Thames, England.

The remaining structures of Richmond Palace include the Gate House, the Wardrobe, and the Trumpeter's House near the River Thames.

Henry VII constructed Richmond Palace in 1501 to replace Shene Palace, which had been a royal residence since Edward I in 1299.

The palace grounds contain Richmond Green, a 12-acre space that serves for cricket matches and community gatherings throughout the year.

The palace remains are accessible via Richmond Station on the District line, followed by a 10-minute walk through Richmond town center.

Elizabeth I chose Richmond Palace as her preferred residence and spent her final moments there before her death in 1603.
