The collection has been updated by successive monarchs to meet changing transport needs.You'll see historic coaches and carriages including the Diamond Jubilee State Coach, the Australian State Coach (a gift to Queen Elizabeth II from the Australian people that features central heating), and the Gold State Coach, which has been used at every coronation since George IV in 1821, including the Coronation of King Charles III in 2023.Interactive experiences include sitting in a replica of Queen Victoria's Semi-State Landau carriage for photographs, dressing up in footman livery, and learning about horse harnessing techniques.
