Royal Archives Online

Welcome to Royal Archives Online, the catalogue of the archival collections held in the Royal Archives at Windsor Castle.

This catalogue currently contains descriptions of collections from the reigns of George I (1714-1727) to Edward VII (1901-1910), as well as the eighteenth-century papers of the exiled Stuarts, records relating to the Duke of Cumberland (mainly as Captain General of the British Army between 1745 and 1757) and the papers of 2nd Viscount Melbourne (1779-1848).
