Canterbury Castle is a ruined Norman castle located in Canterbury, Kent. It was one of the three original Royal castles of Kent, built soon after the Battle of Hastings on the main Roman road from Dover to London. Despite its current closure for safety reasons, the castle's outer shell remains an impressive sight, reflecting its historical significance. The area around the castle is pleasant for a short walk, and it stands as a testament to the Anglo-Norman architectural marvels.
