Windsor Castle is located in the English city of Windsor and is the largest continuously inhabited castle in the world. Windsor Castle's origins date back to the times of William the Conqueror. The castle, along with the entire Windsor estate, is owned by the British Crown and administered by the Royal Household. It is part of the Royal Collection while the Windsor estate is part of the Crown Estate. Along with Buckingham Palace and Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh, it is one of the British monarch's main official residences. The castle is located in the town of Windsor in the county of Berkshire in England. Below the castle flows the River Thames on its way east to the capital, London. Windsor Castle is also known as "English Versailles". Windsor Castle is the Queen's official weekend residence and is owned by Queen Elizabeth II. also used annually for a month at Easter, while she spends the Christmas holidays at her private estate, Sandringham House, and August and September at Balmoral Castle, Scotland. On the occasion of her 80th On her birthday, the Queen moved her permanent residence to Windsor Castle and has since spent only three days a week (usually Tuesday to Thursday) at London's Buckingham Palace for work. Their presence is marked by the Royal Coat of Arms standard atop the Round Tower, while their absence flies the Union Jack. Most of the kings and queens of England had a direct influence on the construction and development of the castle, which in their time served them as a garrison, fortress, residence, official palace and sometimes prison. Today the buildings serve both as a museum and for state events, as well as for the Queen's private purposes. The history of the castle and that of the British monarchy are inextricably linked; it can be traced chronologically through the reigns of the monarchs who owned it. When the country was at peace, large and sumptuous rooms were added to the castle. In times of war, the castle was fortified more strongly. This pattern continues to this day.
