What can be found at Pevensey Castle?
When visiting Pevensey Castle, walk the massive outer walls and gatehouse of one of the Romans' Saxon shore forts, within which the Normans built another oval-shaped castle, now ruined. Parts of the Pevensey Castle towers, keep and chapel remain and Elizabethan catapult balls and cannon can also be seen.
The history of Pevensey Castle:
Pevensey Castle reopened in summer 2019, the castle features a new interpretation that tells its story from when it was first fortified by the Romans, to its time used as a coastal fortress in WWII. The Pevensey Castle dungeon is now accessible all year round, as are two towers that weren’t previously accessible, and a new museum showcases jewellery, household items and weaponry, reflecting not only Pevensey Castle's military occupation but also its history as a home to families over the centuries.
A new trail for children takes them on a mission around the castle and gets them to explore its nooks and crannies and look for hidden things.
