Blenheim Palace We can see a beautiful and big castle with five fountains. This picture is the back of castle. The Garden of Blenheim Palace owes much to the Duke of Malborough who, in the 1920's, with the help of the French landscape architect Achille Duchêne, redesigned the garden to create the magnificent setting that visitors can see today.
