Richmond Palace was one of Queen Elizabeth's favourite palaces. She often held court there and loved to hunt stags in the nearby park. Richmond Palace was also considered the warmest of the royal palaces and the Queen liked to spend winter there. As she got older, the Queen spent more time than ever at Richmond, and died there on 24 March 1603.
