Site of Nonsuch Palace

About This Tour

Nonsuch Palace was Henry VIII's most extravagant building project — commissioned in 1538 and designed to outshine every other palace in Europe, hence its name. The palace itself no longer stands, but its footprint survives within Nonsuch Park, on the boundary between Epsom & Ewell and the London Borough of Sutton, marked and interpreted for visitors.

It appeals most to guests with a specific interest in Tudor history — a chance to stand on the ground where one of the most ambitious buildings in English history once stood, set in open, pleasant parkland.
