Norwich Castle is a medieval royal fortification in the city of Norwich. William the conqueror (1066–1087) ordered its construction in the aftermath of the Norman Conquest of England. The castle was used as a gaol from 1220 to 1887. In 1894 the Norwich Museum moved to Norwich Castle. The museum and art gallery holds significant objects from the region, especially works of art, archaeological finds and natural history specimens.
(The medieval keep is currently closed for a major redevelopment that will transform it to its former glory as a Royal Palace; it is due to reopen in 2024. Reduced admission prices to reflect this.)
