Discover the fascinating history of England's mightiest castle.
Explore the 12th-century Medieval Great Tower and delve into the grandeur and spectacle of King Henry II's court. In close proximity, you'll find engaging new exhibits and recently reopened medieval tunnels that narrate the tales of two lethal sieges in the 1210s, offering a glimpse into the lives of soldiers during the Napoleonic Wars.
The castle was once more thrust into service during the Second World War, transforming into the command centre for the 1940 evacuation of Dunkirk. As the war progressed, these tunnels served as a medical facility for wounded soldiers. Both narratives are vividly brought to life through compelling audio-visual presentations within the tunnels themselves.
A visit to Dover Castle promises an unforgettable experience.
