Inside The Tudor Stately Home Featured In 'The Crown' | American Viscountess

Video Description

In this episode of American Viscountess, Julie Montagu explores the romantic and storied Knebworth House - a gothic treasure defined by its turrets, domes, and gargoyles. Home to Henry and Martha Lytton Cobbold and their family, Knebworth's dramatic facade conceals over 500 years of history, from its Tudor roots to its 19th-century transformation. Julie meets Martha, a fellow American, who has fully embraced life in this historic British estate and is passionately dedicated to its preservation for future generations. Knebworth's legacy is rich with music, literature, and politics - from iconic rock concerts and royal visits to the literary brilliance of the Lytton family. Each generation has left its mark, and today, Martha carries that legacy forward, safeguarding the soul of this extraordinary place.
