Carisbrooke Castle is a medieval castle on a hill above Carisbrooke village, just south-west of Newport on the Isle of Wight, begun around 1100 by Richard de Redvers on a site probably fortified in Saxon times. King Charles I was held prisoner here in 1647–48. Visitors walk the walls, see the well-house with its donkey wheel and visit the castle museum.
Osborne House is a former royal residence on the edge of East Cowes on the Isle of Wight, built between 1845 and 1851 for Queen Victoria and Prince Albert as a summer home. Albert designed it with the builder Thomas Cubitt in the style of an Italian Renaissance palazzo, with two belvedere towers. Victoria died here in 1901; visitors see the royal rooms and the gardens.
