The Royal Mews, Buckingham Palace Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The Royal Mews is one of the finest working stables anywhere in the world and home to the royal collection of historic coaches and carriages, the Windsor Greys and Cleveland Bays. To this day, the stables are still responsible for all road travel arrangements for His Majesty The King and other members of the Royal Family.
The Royal Mews has been the location of the sovereign’s road transport since 1760 when George III moved his carriage collection closer to his new home at Buckingham Palace – since then it has been updated by several monarchs in keeping with their changing transport needs. Among the historic coaches and carriages on display are the spectacular Diamond Jubilee State Coach, and the Australian State Coach, which was given to Queen Elizabeth II as a gift from the Australian people, and even includes central heating!
The most dazzling of all is the Gold State Coach, which has been used at every coronation since that of William IV, and which played a starring role in the Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June 2022.
Families visiting the Royal Mews will love posing for a photo while sitting in a replica of Queen Victoria's Semi-State Landau carriage, dressing up as a footman in specially created livery, or even learning how to harness a horse!
As well as a complimentary multimedia guide for every visitor, the Royal Mews offers regular guided tours where visitors can learn the history of the Mews and its association with the British monarchy.

The Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace is an absolute must-visit for anyone fascinated by British history, royalty, or equestrian culture. From the elegant carriages used in royal processions to the magnificent horses housed within, every corner of the Mews exudes grandeur and charm.Stepping inside, visitors are transported to a world of regal splendor, where meticulously maintained carriages stand as testaments to centuries of tradition and craftsmanship. The sheer opulence of the State Vehicles, including the dazzling Gold State Coach, is simply breathtaking.Moreover, the Mews provides a fascinating glimpse into the daily workings of the Royal Household, with knowledgeable staff on hand to share insights into the care of the royal horses and the ceremonial role of the carriages.One of the highlights of the experience is undoubtedly the chance to see the majestic Windsor Greys, the preferred carriage horses of the British monarchy. Their grace and beauty up close are truly mesmerizing.Overall, a visit to the Royal Mews offers a captivating blend of history, heritage, and royal spectacle, making it a memorable and enriching experience for visitors of all ages.
Nice little tour. We came here after a tour of the palace we wouldn't come here specifically just for this only if you are in the area.It's still very nice for children especially that you can climb some of the exhibits.It is highly recommended to order the tickets in advance as they are not that expensive.
Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace is responsible for all road travel arrangements for The King and members of the Royal Family, from horse-and-carriage to car and from livery to harness. See behind the scenes at a real working stables in the heart of London, steeped in royal history, and marvel at the iconic 260-year-old Gold State Coach, used at State occasions such as Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation in 1953, the Platinum Jubilee in 2022 and King Charles III Coronation in 2023
while visiting UK suddenly comes to mind to visit the Royal Place and I did the self guided audio tour of the Royal Mews. Very informative. The Staff on the site were helpful. I can say Jul it was a fascinating site worth the stop after seeing Buckingham Palace.
