Kimbolton Castle, Castle and house museum in Kimbolton, England.

The architectural complex features classical facades with castle-like elements, grand staircases, and decorative rooms adorned with Venetian paintings.

Catherine of Aragon, first wife of King Henry VIII, spent her final years at Kimbolton Castle until her death in January 1536.

The Montagu family owned the property for 335 years, transforming it from a medieval fortress into an aristocratic residence with refined interiors.

The castle now operates as an educational institution, allowing visitors to explore its grounds and witness the fusion of historical architecture with modern functionality.

Giant sequoia trees line the castle avenue, planted during the 19th century as part of the estate's landscaping projects.
