King Charles III is contemplating turning the Queen's holiday home Balmoral Castle into a museum in her memory. The 50,000-acre royal estate in Dee Valley, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, is approximately worth a whopping £120million and is where Her Majesty spent each summer.

This comes after Charles plans to modernise and slim down the monarchy, and is now considering turning the castle into an exhibition open to the public, writes the Mirror.It is thought the location might be refashioned as a museum in memory of his mother Queen Elizabeth II, who passed away there on September 8.

A source speaking to the MailOnline said: "Looking at the number of properties and the number of working members of the Royal Family, the King will be looking at the properties and asking: 'What value does this give to the public?'"Various personal artefacts and items of clothing worn by the monarch at significant points in her 70-year reign could potentially feature in exhibits, with the possible inclusion of selected pieces from the royal jewellery collection also likely to draw visitors.The reports come only days after Daily Mirror royal expert Russell Myers told Lorraine on her ITV breakfast show that Charles had previously spoken of converting one of the family's palaces - as he thought the Royal Family had too many already.The topic was raised when Lorraine told Russell: "I think they should turn Buckingham Palace into a museum, I think they should."To which he replied: "Interestingly enough, King Charles has always been saying this.

He's said he would want some of the royal palaces to be turned into museums because you don't need them all."I think it doesn't really sit with the music at the moment, so it will be very interesting to see how
