Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II has died aged 96. Here is a selection of pictures from the times she visited the county during her reign.
The Queen visited Suffolk on a number of occasions over her 70 years on the throne, whether that be for a private visit or an official state visit.
One of the Queen's most famous visits was in 2002 when the Duke of Edinburgh accompanied her on a tour of the county to mark her Golden Jubilee.
The first visited the Queen made to Suffolk after her father, King George VI, died at Sandringham in Norfolk was in 1953 when she and Prince Philip flew to Martlesham, near Ipswich, to see defences being restored along the River Deben.
In 1961 Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth was driven around Ipswich Town's Portman Road pitch in a modified Land Rover to greet about 8,000 excited guests.
On the same day she travelled to Stowmarket to visit an arts, crafts and agricultural event.
The Queen also paid a visit to many charitable events across the county during her reign.
She received a 21-gun salute when she carried out an inspection of the 1st East Anglian Regiment on Angel Hill.
