Spectacularly situated above the White Cliffs of Dover this magnificent castle has guarded our shores from invasion for 20 centuries – now you can enjoy a great family day out with a visit to the ‘Key to England’. 

Explore the darkly atmospheric Secret Wartime Tunnels including the vivid recreation of the Dunkirk evacuation in Operation Dynamo: Rescue from Dunkirk, complete with dramatic projections of swooping Spitfires and real film footage. Enjoy a colourful contrast with the richly-furnished Great Tower, where costumed actors introduce medieval life at King Henry II’s court. 

With exciting exhibitions, winding tunnels to explore, ghosts to hunt out – and of course restaurants, shops and space for youngsters to run around – an action-packed, great value family day out awaits!
