๐ง Fun fact
Hatfield House, located in Hertfordshire, not far from London, has a fascinating connection to English royalty. It was in the gardens of Hatfield House that the young Princess Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth I) was informed of her accession to the throne in 1558. There is even an oak tree, known as the Elizabeth Oak, marking the spot where this historic moment is believed to have taken place. The house itself is a prime example of Jacobean architecture and has been the home of the Cecil family for over 400 years.

The gala at the 'Belgian chateau,' where Ludendorff and Dr. Maru attend the fancy event, is staged in the Long Gallery of Hatfield House. This Jacobean mansion has been a versatile filming location, appearing in various films, including Shekhar Kapur's Elizabeth: The Golden Age and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider.
