Keeping Up With The Conquerers
EDP Norfolk|September 2017

One of the biggest transformations of Norwich Castle in its near thousand year history will restore it to its palatial heyday

Keeping Up With The Conquerers
NORWICH CASTLE was once a royal palace as well as a formidable fortress and exquisite example of the very grandest of Norman architecture. William the Conqueror’s son feasted here when king himself, it was besieged and captured, and home to aristocrats, top government officials, soldiers and servants.

Over the next three years a project to re-imagine one of the most elaborate castles in Europe will transform it, colouring in its magnificent past and showing off its finest features.

Where previous projects have created much-needed extra back-room facilities, Norwich Castle: Gateway to Medieval England, is focused on how visitors will experience the castle. Some parts of the Norman building will be open to the public for the first time, others will look completely different as time is rewound and floors replaced, doorways rediscovered and museum artefacts redisplayed to tell the story of the castle, Norwich and Norfolk.
