About

A 45-minute guided outdoor tour of Pontefract Castle exploring its royal and Civil War history, suitable for all ages.

This guided walking tour takes visitors around Pontefract Castle, once known as The Key to the North, covering who built and lived in the castle, stories of royal scandals, and its role in the English Civil Wars. The tour shows what the castle looked like in its heyday and how the site has changed over time. It lasts around 45 minutes, stays on level paths, is wheelchair and pushchair accessible, and runs outdoors in most weather. It is suitable for all ages, and well-behaved dogs on leads are welcome.
