==Influence== [[File:Aerial image of Schwerin Castle (view from the east).jpg|thumb|left|The architecture of [[Schwerin Palace]] was inspired by Château de Chambord]] The Château de Chambord has further influenced a number of architectural and decorative elements across Europe. Château de Chambord was the model for the reconstruction and new construction of the original [[Schwerin Palace]] between 1845 and 1857.<ref>[https://www.schwerin.m-vp.de/schweriner-schloss/ "Schweriner Schloss"]. ''schwerin.m-vp.de'', accessed 18 February 2019</ref><ref>[https://www.svz.de/lokales/schoener-als-das-vorbild-id4654061.html Schöner als das Vorbild] ''svz.de'', accessed 18 February 2019.</ref> Yet in the later half of the 19th century, the château's style proliferated across the United Kingdom, influencing the [[Founder's Building]] at [[Royal Holloway, University of London]], designed by William Henry Crossland<ref>[http://www.timeshighereducation.co.uk/story.asp?sectioncode=26&storycode=405223&c=1 "Original features"]. ''Times Higher Education''. 5 February 2009</ref> and the main building of [[Fettes College]] in Edinburgh, designed by [[David Bryce]] in 1870.<ref>[http://fettes.com/about-fettes/fettes-heritage/ "Fettes College: The Building"]. {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190106204334/http://fettes.com/about-fettes/fettes-heritage/ |date=6 January 2019}}.

Emons Verlag GmbH. Retrieved 19 February 2019.</ref> Between 1874 and 1889, the country house in Buckinghamshire, [[Waddesdon Manor]], was built with similar architectural frameworks as the Château de Chambord, disseminated via the architect Gabriel-[[Hippolyte Destailleur]]. For instance, the twin staircase towers, on the north façade, were inspired by the staircase tower at the château.<ref>Girouard, Mark ''A Hundred Years at Waddesdon'', published by Rothschild Waddesdon, 1998: 24</ref> However, following the theme of unparalleled luxury at Waddesdon, the windows of the towers at Waddesdon were glazed, unlike those of the staircase at Chambord, and were far more ornate.
