Sir Winston Churchill's home from 1922 until his death, though not as grand as his birthplace (Blenheim Palace), Chartwell has preserved its rooms as the Conservative politician left them -- maps, documents, photographs, pictures, personal mementos, and all. Two rooms display gifts that the prime minister received from people all over the world. A selection of many of his well-known uniforms includes his famous "siren-suits" and hats. Many of Churchill's paintings are displayed in a garden studio. You can see the garden walls that the prime minister built with his own hands and the pond where he sat to feed the Golden Orfe. A restaurant on the grounds serves food on days when the house is open.
