Locals outraged as Windsor Castle ends free entry policy | World News

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Residents of Windsor are up in arms after Windsor Castle announced the end of free entry for locals starting June 1. The Royal Collection Trust, which previously offered this perk, has decided to discontinue it, much to the dismay of many residents.

The decision has sparked outrage among the community, with liberal Democrat parliamentary candidate Julian Tisi expressing disappointment. Tisi argued that locals should have free access to the iconic castle, considering the significant number of tourists it attracts each year.

Despite being a working palace and one of the king’s official residences, Windsor Castle has been open to the public year-round. However, the new pricing policy has left many feeling excluded from their own heritage.

In response to the backlash, Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead councillor Amy Tisi reassured residents that efforts would be made to ensure that no one is priced out of visiting the castle. The Royal Collection Trust also stated that they are exploring ways to make the castle more accessible to the local community.

As the controversy continues to unfold, residents are hopeful that a solution can be reached to preserve their access to this historic landmark. The debate over the pricing policy at Windsor Castle serves as a reminder of the delicate balance between preserving heritage and ensuring inclusivity for all members of the community.
