The palace is notable as the birthplace and ancestral home of Sir Winston Churchill.įollowing the palace's completion, it became the home of the Churchill (later Spencer-Churchill) family for the next 300 years, and various members of the family have wrought changes to the interiors, park and gardens. It is unique in its combined use as a family home, mausoleum and national monument. The project soon became the subject of political infighting, with the Crown cancelling further financial support in 1712, Marlborough's three-year voluntary exile to the Continent, the fall from influence of his duchess, and lasting damage to the reputation of the architect Sir John Vanbrugh.ĭesigned in the rare, and short-lived, English Baroque style, architectural appreciation of the palace is as divided today as it was in the 1720s. The land was given as a gift, and construction began in 1705, with some financial support from Queen Anne. It was originally intended to be a reward to John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough for his military triumphs against the French and Bavarians in the War of the Spanish Succession, culminating in the Battle of Blenheim. The palace is named after the 1704 Battle of Blenheim. The palace, one of England's largest houses, was built between 17, and designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987. It is the seat of the Dukes of Marlborough and the only non- royal, non- episcopal country house in England to hold the title of palace.
