In 1845 Queen Victoria and Prince Albert bought
Osborne House and its 1000 acres. Osborne House was a retreat for Queen Victoria and
Prince Albert. They greatly enjoyed the Isle of Wight, far from the pressures court
life at Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle.
Queen Victoria, after Albert died, spent most of her time
at Osborne House and she died there in 1901. The longest reigning english monarch
(1837 to 1901). Since her death little has changed at
Osborne and many of the royal couple's possessions, photographs and
paintings are still at Osborne.
