The exterior of Blenheim Palace in Oxfordshire is portrayed as the imperial Buckingham House, currently addressed as Buckingham Palace. Starting from the scene of Queen Charlotte and King George entering the palace on the first night of their marriage (episode 1) to the majestic background of the show’s final grand ball (episode 6), the palace draws the most spotlight as one of the significant filming locations in Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story series.
Additionally, two more landmarks of England were included while shooting the house’s interiors — Hatfield House in Hertfordshire (also seen in Netflix’s The Crown and the Jonas Brothers’ music video ‘Sucker’) and Hampton Court Palace in Richmond (previously seen in both the seasons of Bridgerton).
A treasure of Baroque architecture, home to the 12th Duke of Marlborough as well as the birthplace of Winston Churchill (a British statesman and former Prime Minister of the United Kingdom), Blenheim Palace stands as one of the finest UNESCO World Heritage Sites, furnished with a rich legacy.
Other famous series or films shot at Blenheim Palace: Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001), Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007), The Young Victoria (2009), Cinderella (2015), Cinderella (2021), Transformer: The Last Knight (2017), Housefull 4 (2019)
