Stratfield Saye House Tours
About this event
Discover the private home of the Duke of Wellington and wander through the beautiful gardens. View the fascinating collection of paintings and furniture, and the wonderful Wellington Exhibition featuring the Duke’s magnificent funeral carriage and charting his military and political life. Famous for his major role in the Napoleonic war, The Duke of Wellington was Prime Minister twice, serving from 22nd January 1828 to 16th November 1830, and again from 17th November to 9th December 1834.
Stratfield Saye House has been the home to the Dukes of Wellington for over 200 years.
The Duke died at Walmer Castle in September 1852 and is buried in the crypt of St. Paul’s cathedral. But all these years later, nowhere holds a stronger impression of Wellington the man, than Stratfield Saye.
