Contemporary Art
Continuing our programme Light at Waddesdon which was launched at Christmas 2012 with two pieces of light art, Blue Moon on a Platter and Angel of Light by Bruce Munro, the Coach House Gallery will host another extraordinary installation for the 2013 season. Take a look at a short film of this piece - Cantus Arcticus
Welcome to Waddesdon...
A place to switch off. Space to unwind. Room to entertain, appreciate the arts, and savour fine food and wine. Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild's vision for his turreted château is as relevant today as it was in the late 19th-century. And it's yours to explore.
A fine collection...
From Old Dutch Masters to fine French porcelain, a tour of Ferdinand de Rothschild's art collection was one of the highlights for any weekend visitor. Today, the collection has been lovingly restored and preserved, with a wide variety of contemporary works added.
Garden delights ...
There's something magical about Waddesdon's Victorian landscaped gardens. Each turn of the pathway reveals a surprise - stunning floral displays, beautiful marble sculptures or views that stretch as far as the eye can see. Here, you can take things at your own pace, or learn more about the garden's design, upkeep and planting schemes.
