Newcastle Castle
The Black Gate, Castle Garth, NE1 1RQ
It's easy to see why Newcastle received its name from its majestic Norman fortification, which is only a short walk from the city's central station. Newcastle Castle has a remarkable history, dating back to William the Conqueror and serving as a site where "armies gathered, and criminals were imprisoned and executed." It's a family-friendly spot with beautiful interior architecture and a wonderful view of the city and the Tyne River from the top.
