Mausoleum of the Duchess of Kent, Grade I listed mausoleum in Frogmore Gardens, Windsor, England.

The mausoleum features a rotunda structure surrounded by sixteen Ionic columns crafted from Cornish granite, topped with a blue glass dome decorated with stars.

Built in 1861, the mausoleum houses the remains of Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld, mother of Queen Victoria, following her death on March 16 of that year.

The structure represents Victorian architectural preferences through its classical elements, demonstrating the period's approach to commemorating royal family members.

The building contains a statue of the Duchess created by William Theed in 1864, positioned in the upper chamber above the burial vault.
