Camden Place: the Making of Chislehurst’s Château

Camden Place is a Grade ll* listed building with important history and architecture. This overview of the French chateau styled property, features added by architect Henry Clutton in the 1860’s, was filmed in the summer of 2026. You can find out about the house, its residents and architecture at For people not able to visit Camden Place we have added a series of short videos to give you a feel for the rooms and the building.

July 2026 saw the much-anticipated launch of Ed Shawcross’s biography of Napoleon lll.

As part of our focus on the Empress Eugénie in her bicentenary, we are planning a special digital exhibition and documentary event that will launch later in the summer.
