Lancaster Castle’s origins date back almost 1,000 years.

A Grade 1 Listed Building on a city centre hilltop location, on the site of three successive Roman forts. Lancaster Castle has been described by English Heritage as “not only the North-West’s most important historic and archaeological monument but also of international importance”.

A day out for all the family with tours to view the interior of the castle, cells and courtrooms. Lean about the trials of the Pendle Witches & the ‘dark’ history of the castle. There is a lovely cafe in the courtyard of the castle perfect for a warm drink when you are finished exploring. Events are held throughout the year, be sure to check what’s on!
