That would be brilliant! With all of us as curators/guides of course!

I would love to be corrected, but I don't think that there has been much recognition given by the Monarchy to Anne Boleyn, yet…
I remember reading somewhere that there was a case made to have Anne reburied and recognised. The request was denied. In the Tower of London, one is hard pressed to find her name written anywhere except on the floor of Saint Peter Ad vincula and the Tower Green monument. As many people come to the Tower to see that part of history, one would expect a little more recognition of the executed queens. I would favor Hever for any museum dedicated to Anne.
If it was not this, then it would be something else?

I like the idea of Hever, too. It's where she was happy and is still honored.

I agree. When I went to Hever, I believe about two years ago, she was definitely mentioned and honored. I suppose an Anne room at the Tower would be interesting, but Hever was, after all, her childhood home, and besides, would we really want a museum for Anne at the place she died?

Wreckmasterjay: For things to do, the castle is, of course, fantastic for an Anne fan but great for anyone, beautiful and interesting. There are many pretty mazes, gardens, etc around the grounds, and I believe your kids would enjoy the water maze. I remember it being a maze on walkways above water, the goal being to get to the small stone building in the middle, and when you stepped on a certain place water would spurt on you. (I recommend a change of clothes; you get wet!) I think there is also a small playground or something.
Sorry, I'm not sure about the prices, but I hope my description helped. 🙂

Ha ha Trust me, they'll enjoy the maze, you wouldn't believe the amount of screaming, laughing kids there!
Also, just a side note about Hever (never miss the chance to gush about Tudor landmarks) – the actual castle is very interesting because it's a diverse mix of different owners and spans across many centuries. Oh, and it's great to see the portrait of Anne there.
