People taking part in Windsor Castle activities

About

Celebrate together the traditions of Oak Apple Day and discover the fascinating history of Charles II, his fight to recover the crown jewels and save the monarchy. 

At Pug Yard Learning Centre, you can decorate leaves, acorns and apples to form a badge that honours Oak Apple Day and shows your allegiance to King Charles II;  or you can even make your own nature-inspired crowns to wear. 

Families can learn how Charles II escaped and discover the story of the Restoration. 

Why not pick up a family trail to follow as you tour The Castle.
