St George's Chapel is a stunning example of Perpendicular Gothic architecture and has been a spiritual heart of Windsor Castle for centuries. It is the burial place of ten monarchs, including Henry VIII and Charles I, and the site of recent royal weddings like that of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Visitors are awed by the intricate stonework, magnificent fan-vaulted ceiling, and the colorful heraldic banners of the Knights of the Garter. The chapel remains an active place of worship, adding to its serene and sacred atmosphere.
