Description

Nestled in the rolling hills of West Sussex, England, Arundel Castle stands as a crowning example of medieval architecture. For over 1,000 years, its imposing towers and ramparts have weathered the march of time, bearing witness to the colorful history of British nobility. Today, the castle opens its doors to visitors seeking to experience that history firsthand. Stroll across the sprawling grounds and you’ll feel as though you’ve stepped into a fairy tale. Massive stone walls wrap around lush gardens and courtyards where knights once jousted for glory. The castle keep, built in the 11th century, looms over it all, a reminder of Arundel’s strategic importance in the Middle Ages. On clear days, views from the castle ramparts stretch as far as the sea. Though much of the decor reflects later periods, the castle’s medieval roots remain on full display. Tapestries, paintings and other artifacts offer a glimpse into life during the castle’s early days. And events like the Tulip Festival and jousting competitions transport visitors back in time with colorful pageantry. Whether you seek to relive the chivalry of a bygone.
