The Royal Collection Trust posted historic images on social media, noting that Lady Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon, who later became Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, was born on Aug. 4, 1900.

The castle said that although she is often believed to have been born at Glamis Castle, she moved there at the age of four and spent much of her childhood at the estate, where many of her earliest memories were formed.

While the celebrations are unrelated, both occasions fall on the same date.
