Eton College is a public school in Eton, Berkshire, England. It was founded in 1440 by Henry VI under the name Kynge's College of Our Ladye of Eton besyde Windesore, intended as a sister institution to King's College, Cambridge, making it the 18th-oldest Headmasters' and Headmistresses' Conference (HMC) school. Eton is particularly well-known for its history, wealth, and notable alumni, called Old Etonians.
Eton is one of only three public schools, along with Harrow (1572) and Radley (1847), to have retained the boys-only, boarding-only tradition, which means that its boys live at the school seven days a week. The college is internationally known not only for excellence but also for its famous pupils, including aristocratic and royal families, including the Prince of Wales and Duke of Sussex.
It is most recommended not only to visit the college but also to tour Eton's lovely streets and view its magnificent architecture.
