Kenilworth: Castle Kenilworth: Castle English Heritage

Description


Built around an original Norman Fort, the castle was enlarged over several hundred years until it reached its peak in the times of Queen Elizabeth. Part of it was destroyed after the civil war, but it became one of the first castles to become a tourist attraction thanks to Sir Walter Scott's novel "Kenilworth".
