Around 1530, Henry VIII had a court of around 1,200 people living with him in the palace. For this purpose, the initially "smaller" kitchen was extended to 50 rooms covering a total area of 3,350 square metres, which were arranged around several courtyards according to an ingenious system. One of the huge fireplaces is still lit for demonstration purposes. And you can get an approximate idea of the temperatures that prevailed when all 6 fireplaces were heated in the one kitchen room. Insane! Kisses 😘.
